The most important weight is the big lump sitting on it 🙂

no way 19lbs, scales are way off. Frame is probably 1.3 -1.4 kg, heavy forks, rotors , stem, bar , groupset etc. I would say more like 23lbs

Grips?
Rim tape?
Which model of Nobby Nics?

I'll guess it's the weight of a medium badger, male.

If you're in Space the weight is zero.

Low 20s, daft to try and get closer than that tbh but if I had to, I'd say 23lbs.

Sort of. You'd have a tiny (yes, negligible) weight if you are within the gravitational pull of a planet/star/astroid/comet/lump of whatever/lost aliens 😉

22.75lbs ... or sensibly light. I have something similar - just get out and ride it and don't worry about a few lbs 🙂

~23lbs also, or on my scales, 'wgas there's nothing heavy on it and some stuff may need to be beefed up'
19lbs, no chance )

The number is always 42.

The only problem is finding a suitable unit for the number.
