Bike weight was 25.25lbs. It's probably a bit less now because I've gone to light tubes so no sealant in the tires and it has a hollow pin chain. Probably closer to 25lbs even but I haven't weighed it again. Total guess here but I'm thinking it's about 5-6 lighter than my Prophet. I know that it feels totally different.

BTW...my understanding of the definition of "weight weiner" is someone obsessed with weight reduction even at the expense of longevity/reliability. I would rather have a heavier bike and ride home at the end of the day. Still, there is nothing wrong with making some smart choices to reduce the weight of a bike. To each his own.
