[Closed] Charge Spoon Ti heavier than Cr-mo

I just bought a Charge Spoon Ti to replace my Cr-mo version (which I will put on the Mrs bike for her to see if she likes it). Out of curiosity I weighed the Ti and it came out at 284g which is actually heavier than my Cr-mo version which weighs 277g. Has anyone else encountered this? I think the Ti is meant to be around 250g and the Cr-mo 285g.

Where did you buy the Spoon Ti from? Was it a reputable source?

My experience with Charge products is that their quality control is utter bobbins, so its likely that the saddle weight is a random variable.

I got it from Ribble, I think it should be leather instead of synethic leather on the Cr-mo.
