[Closed] whats your AM/Enduro bike weight?

Perhaps we do need a combined Rider & Bike weight?

Without any extra kit (ie camelback etc) me and mine total 81kg

Some of these sub 30lb Enduro bikes look like they'd break on seeing the Alps

We are on our last day of a three week trip in the Alps and Abigale on a five week trip. Two of our three sub 30 lbs bikes have broke this week. Mine has a big crack in the top tube from a crash over some rocks and down the side, Kevins from a slide on a rooty chute into a rock has big gouges on the downtube, now duct tapped up. Abigales bounced alongway down the mountain side yesterday but has survived. I think heavier bikes wouldnt have survived the falls any better.

33 lbs of Cannondale Jekyll in old aluminium , with a Reverb and the new Zee brakes I fitted last night. Its a chunky beast and riding it to work, seems the BB has decided to sound like a cement mixer full of rocks today on the way to work........... great, more money........ I am sure that the Schwalbe 2.5 tyres weigh 5 lb each.......
When i bought it new, it had 1.75 lightweight tubes in it, before I changed it to tubeless.

My XL 5 spot is 13.7kgs or 30.2lb using my suitcase scales which is the same as the calibrated scales at work..........

Its not built up particularly light either.

Apparently 31.6lbs, swapping the shock for a monarch plus so that will increase it a bit. Certainly doesn't feel heavy to ride which is what matters to me.

Better tell [url= http://www.cyclingnews.com/features/pro-bike-jared-graves-yeti-sb6c ]Jared[/url] and [url= http://www.cyclingnews.com/features/pro-bike-anne-caroline-chaussons-ibis-prototype ]Anne-Caroline[/url] 🙂

Someone is fibing in France.

I really dislike it when people fibe.

😉

Large Banshee Rune, Bos Devilles, Easton Havoc wheels, Magic Mary / Rock Razor tyres, ti Nano pedals, Zee mech, Saint Shifter, Atlas cranks, XT casette, 991r chain, Rever, Ti Fly saddle weighs in at 32.6lbs on digital scales.

Ditching the Reverb and getting some carbon bars would help but I like it as it is. It doesn't feel heavy to ride.

Every time I lift this up it amazes me how light it feels. Dunno the exact weight but have to find out.

Here's a sub-30lb er that didn't break in the alps:

Actual weight as it is on that chairlift (Alpine Sports Feedback Scales) = 29.01lbs/13.16Kgs.

Alp-ified along the same lines as Northwind, with Alex FR30 rims and Superstar hubs plus Specialized Butcher SX (f) and Specialized Purgatory Grid (r). Plus I put a Zee front brake on it from my DH bike.

In UK spec, with Light Bicycle 33mm rims and Hope Pro IIs plus Butcher and Purgatory Controls it is 27.36lbs/12.41Kgs.

Oh, it's a Giant Reign 2 with 160mm dual-position Pikes, Reverb, 203/180mm discs, running 1 x 10 with One-Up 42t rear and 34t Works Components N/W, Superstar Mag Alloy flats with Ti axles, Renthal Carbon Fatbar lites, TiFly saddle etc.

I want to borrow some scales off this forum, cheapest upgrade ever 😉

SC Newmad (debonair shock) DT 240s/E13 TRS rims/DT revs, Reverb, XTR brakes, full XO1 (XTR cranks), Haven stem, carbon bars, 130g saddle, mag/ti pedals, Schwalbe tyres, tubeless - 29lb 10oz.

21.5 remedy with coil dsp dueler shock, 650b conversion and Sweeps 32lbs.

Just fitted the 2015 fox 36 floats but have to rebuild wheel before can get weight on that setup

Cheers for the info munrobike 🙂

Any one got the Spesh Enduro Comp 2014 would love to know the weight of that, it's coming to n+1 time and I'm wanting a lighter AM machine ideally Specialize. Torn between 2014 Comp Enduro and Stumjumper FSR Comp Evo 😕

Canyon strive is 30lbs but as I've put on over a stone recently it hardly matters. FWIW I don't think that it's much better than the 33lbs meta 5 it replaced.

Certainly doesn't feel heavy to ride which is what matters to me.

That's the best thing about Zestys, they seem to pedal like they're a few lbs lighter.

Well that was interesting, first time I've ever weighed any of my bikes and what I thought was a 34-35lb beast is actually bang on, with mud attached 30lbs.....I really am unfit 😆
2013 Orange 5AM, CCDBA, Fox Float 36 20mmQR, crossmax SX wheelset, SLX/Zee/race face transmission, full width atlas bars and stem, 2.4UST nobby nics with two cups of Fenwicks sealant in each and Hope Tech Stealth V4s with twin vented floating discs 203mm size and Reverb post with Time DH pedals.
So I could get under the 30lb by putting my spare time Attacs on 😆

XL Liteville 301 (alu frame) with air Lyriks, Mallets, XT and 1 by 10; Minions plus Flow at rear. No dropper though; 29.5 lbs.
I weigh 10st 3lbs.

My Pronghorn was a shade under 28 lbs: full XT, Fox Float 160 RLC, TRP Dash Carbon brakes, American Classic wheels. I've since ditched the flyweight tyres, carbon seatpost, stem and bars in favour of some Spesh DH tyres, Spank bars, Hussefelt stem and a KS Dropzone. Probably knocking on the door of 30 lbs now.

As said earlier, my Alpine 160 weighed in at 34.8lbs(15.78kg)(,combined with rider thats 265.8lbs, but I found it cheaper and better to reduce the rider weight by 34.6lbs over the last 8 months. So new combined weight is 231.2lb and that has helped a lot more than reducing the bike by a few grams here and there.

Seen plenty of not broken ones on the bike park trails here in Whistler, plus thrashed mine all over the UK, still not broken.

Seems like there's a few 'optimistic' weights here. As well as flat out lies....

I weight around 175lbs

I'm afraid I'm with tomhoward here, some of the weights listed are hilarious, must be weighing them in water or just have wilful blindness!

My scales must be faulty as I have a fully rigid carbon xc bike that weighs not much less than some of these

Your joking right Suggsey?

Decent weight for alu frame bike - straight out the box no upgrades

No, I ain't joking, dead up straight honest weight....it doesnt really matter when your the wrong side of 17 stone does it?
I re weighed it several times... I think with the original hope wheels it was a lot heavier. The discs funnily enough are lighter than some solid 203mm ones I have in the spares box. I may have put an XT cassette (so maybe not SLX) on the new wheels when I fitted them and it's got a KMC SL gold 10 speed chain.

Update....you made me doubt my digital bathroom scales so much I've just gone and fished out a very cheap set of analogue luggage scale thingy and by them I am in fact a liar and the reason why it pedals like its 34-35lb is because indeed by those scales it registers exactly 34lbs.

Bad news is then as the bathroom scales are so inaccurate I'm really really overweight and must still be around 18 stones....arse 😆

28.43lb. Will drop slightly as I am putting on a lighter bar and stem next week.

Actually I was overestimating my xc bike weight! Not that it makes a difference; did 1800m climbing last weekend on a ride and not once did I feel the bike was heavy.

And just for fun I chucked my dh bike on too...no wonder my arms ached by the time I carried it up Ben Lomond 🙂

My Orange 5 was 33.8lb 36's , Vanr shock with Ti spring, XTR drive train , Hope Tech 4's, and Hope Hoops Flows, 2.25 Maxxis advantage tubless, Reverb.

I weighed my Liteville on the bathroom scales with me holding it and then subtracted the weight of Chickenman without the bike; got to be pretty accurate, no?

haha just done the same, me - the bike = 13.8kgs - 30lbs. Could drop a few kgs with lighter rims, forks and the cranks weigh a ton, but she's surprisingly nimble and you don't even notice that weight.

Specialized Enduro 2014 expert Carbon 29er. As stock was 28.6 lbs on the park tool scales at work. Just put a fatbar carbon on and converting to tubeless today so should be even lighter.

Freshly alped- coil lyriks, metal wheels, UST highrollers, lockon grips because the ESIs are a bit too easy to destroy, added a chain device which it probably doesn't need but would be a pain in the arse to find out it does. Oh and swapped my steel axled nanos on because why not. 31.75lbs on the +7 Scales Of Possible Optimism. Wish I still had my Van RC for it but the RP23'll do.

Though it dawns on me that I weighed a package with them a while back and it came up pretty much identical on the post office scales, so they can't be far off.

Five spot, flow ex on dt240s, mavic dual ply tyres, revs, dropper and 1x10 with steel nanos

Circa 31lbs on my luggage scales - so could be 30-32lbs. Or less. Or more (but not by much)

What tyres/forks? You should be miles lighter than me with that lot.

That aise - how are the E13 risms? Heard mixed reports, looked at a set of the LG1s for my DH bike.

Stanton slackline Ti - 25lbs. Hardtail FTW!

SC Heckler 6.1
30.85lb as per my luggage scales:

Pikes and Schwalbe Magic Mary/HD both in snakeskin 2.35". Both tubeless.

The TRS rims arn't bad, although I did crack the rear one racing the EWS in Whistler. It survived the rest of the holiday though, including a tonne of park laps.

The LG1 rims are a bit dent-tastic I think, there are probably better choices out there?

Yeah - just liked the look of the LG1s as much as anything.

As for weights - my Ion 16 is 29.94 lbs on a new set of Feedback bike scales - and other than having 27.5 wheels amd the debonair being slightly heavier, I can't work out how your bike could be almost the same - either your scales is being unfair to you, or mine are being generous - I'd have expected your frame to be two pounds lighter than mine

I'm building a 2014 Orange Alpine 26" at the moment with pikes, monarch rc3 debonair, zee cranks and mech, saint flats, 780 renthal bars and stem, formula the ones with 203mm hope floating rotors flows on hope pro2 evo and specialized tyres, charge scoop and specialized command post dropper and by my adding up of parts I reckon it'll be about 32-33lbs. I've had a lightweight ish bike before and kept breaking it so I'd rather have a slightly heavier bike that doesn't break.

It would be helpful for me when stating weight what size the bike is too.

my frame is a small
and i weigh 11st...or there abouts
