Never buy scales, it only ends in disappointment.
Orange Five Pro was quoted as 28lbs in MBR – just weighed mine at 29.75!! Ok, that 28lb is probably sans pedals, I’ve got the bash, my Kendas are a fair bit heavier than the Mountain Kings it comes with (extra weight is worth the performance increase IMO) and I’ve got some heavy Conti 2.1 – 2.5 tubes which I really don’t need adding too much weight. The Holzfeller stem and bar probably isn’t doing it any favours either. Then of course the review bike was sporting the performance pack (Thomson bits and Fizik Gobi). :roll:
My Genesis iO is quoted as 24lb – it’s 25lb.
I thought my Cervelo would be about 18-19lb but is a more portly 20lb!!
The only honest one was my Wife’s Myka FSR, a claimed 29lb and weighed 29lb…
