Bikes: Trek Domane 5.9 DA 9000, Trek Crockett Pink Frosting w/105 5700

A quick search tells me about half a pound. The 6800 and 5800 groups are basically identical in terms of geometry for shifting and braking. I have DA 9000 on one bike and the brakes are the same design (different materials) and work amazingly. Huge difference between Shimano brakes and house brand brakes. If the bike is full 105 5800, I wouldn't be at all wary of it.
