Someone asked me on Sunday and I really haven't a clue.
He looked surprised.
Neither do I. Alot, I expect.
Yup, I know that my Orange 5 weighs 28.29lbs, weighed on the calibrated scales at work.
As for the other 2 dunno yet.
Why did I weigh it, purely out of curiosity, I'm certainly no weight weenie!
According to my highly detailed spreadsheet, my Marin Rock Springs is 30.07lb.
I'll settle for less than 31lb.
28lbs and a bit... Enduro SL weighed at the Post Office...
the demo9 weighs 50lb, i only know because we had to weigh them to go canada 🙂
my 5 spot weighs 29lb according to the scales a the lbs
23 and a bit based on me and bike standing on bathroom scales minus my weight.
Not as much of a weight weenie on the bike as it makes little difference to me. Now mountain marathons, then I get obsessive.
50lbs... sweet mother of god... 😆
Don't know.
Don't care.
I reckon I can get my Rock Springs down to 29.5lb... All it'll take is new bars, saddle, a pair of Ardents and a short cage X9 rear mech...
...actually, I think I'll stop while I still have cash left to take the missus away for a weekend.
seriously, who gives a f f f fiddle. 😆
Carbon S-works Enduro SL '08 (large) self build weighed in at 28lb on fishing scales.
I'm sad. I know the weight of two of them. Seemed important to know as soon as they were built up, ie before they left the lbs. 🙄
Don't even know how much I weigh.
I need to get a life.
Dont know dont care.
I could probably get a lighter bike and be quicker uphill but I'm no racer and ride for enjoyment. So I'll happily have a heavier bike and enjoy the descents a lot more.
My Whyte 19 Ti SS was around the 21lb mark on my LBS's Park digital scale (around the same weight as the geared Whyte 19 Carbon in the showroom) 😥
I've weighed my Zion and Epic and they're just under 23 & 25lb respectively - which casts a lot of doubt on many of the "calculated" weights I see for bikes on here! My Enduro was 29lb but it's been getting heavier as I switch from air to coil for the suspension so I'm expecting it to end up somewhere around 31lb.
Haven't weighed either my Soul or Inbred as they're currently built up but both are heavier than the Epic but lighter than the Enduro.
Until 2 weeks ago no clue. But now, new build means I tried the digital scale at the bike shop. 14.3 for mine 😀
My Ti hardtail is 22.42 lbs. Steel hardtail is 25 lbs. Weights include (heavy) pedals.
juan - you're metric over there aren't you? 😉
Of course I know what my bike weighs - the same way I know what I weigh.
Do you know what you weigh?
My Chameleon weighs just over 27 when laden with mud guards (front rear and inner tube thing), without mud guards its just under 27. Soon to go 1x9 so should hopefully come just under 26.
Can't remember the exact weights and don't really care,but the 575 is lighter than the P7.

Have no idea and don't care either.
29er single speed with boingy front end 9.9kg
ellsworth epihany 11.42kg with 2.1's or 11.75kg with 2.25's.
actual weights because I have calibrated scales and I'm a geek
I know the rough weights (bathroom scales) of 2 bikes inc pedals
20.4 lbs ( own build whyte 19 carbon ) and 27.5 Lbs (foes XCT5, but currently heavier with UST tyres)
I actually weighed my E-120 at work the other day. Partly curiosity, partly inspired by all the b0ll0x spouted on here.
27.5lb for anyone interested 🙂
27 speed (Merlin) 22lbs, 9 speed (Whyte) 24lbs, SS (On-One) 26lbs
I know all the wrong way round - will sort it out one day - maybe 😉
my snappy hemlock weighs 30lbs.
according to a set of £2.99 luggage scales i bought in a service station.
surely fat people shouldnt worry about bike weights? they should stop eating pies first. not calling you all fat by the way
Balanced the tandem on its back wheel on the bathroom scales! 50lbs.
EDIT: which makes naff all difference when nearly 30 stone of captain & stoker climb aboard. Pass the pies please......
I need to get a life - I bought some bathroom scales to weigh the bikes and got caught by the missus weighing tyres and other components.
However I only know within a Lb or two accuracy.
solo - 28lb with full mudguards bottle cage bell and pump
Commtuer - 31 lb with full mudguards, bell and lights
Tandem 49lbs with bottlecages x3, rack, bell, full mudguards and pump

All up weight gets a bit scary with the tandems. 🙂 geroutofmyway - or be flattened

Need to catch people up first.
I do, got a set of fish scales and a nicer set of pan scales in the garage. Not that it really makes any difference, I just like to know what stuff weighs and also whether manufacturers are lying to me. So far Hope and Rockshox have been the chief liars.
I do, but I've forgotten. The hardtail was about 20lbs, the FS 21. Both actual weights!
Haven't a didgeridoo
marin quake with 2.5" dual ply tyres - < 39.5lbs
giant trance - < 29lbs
I did - though the actual weight has probably changed a bit since I last weighed.
Though I have a feeling both mine and njee's weights are part of the reason for comments such as
partly inspired by all the b0ll0x spouted on here.
and
which casts a lot of doubt on many of the "calculated" weights I see for bikes on here
coming from people who probably don't realise the effort involved in getting a truly light bike, and don't realise how heavy most mass market stuff is.
Aracer same old same hey 😉
Will your bike sustain a megavalanche? If not maybe it's not really a mountain bike.
Both bikes weighted with cheapo fishing scales but weight shouldn't be out by much.
Giant NRS, specced with reasonable xc bits weights 28lbs (with Time Z pedals)
Road bike: Lemond Sarthe, steel frame, light-ish finishing kit comes at 20lbs (with Time atac aliums) With lighter tyres/tubes and pedals it would go under 9kg for sure.
I don't really concentrate on getting the weight of my bikes down, I will compare weights of new bits I'm considering buying but I'll stick to what I do now, loosing weight off me, which is free 🙂
not a clue and thats probably a good thing 🙂
mine is lighter than air and carries the heavy weight of responsibility
