As I mentioned, I haven't actually ridden it yet; no chain.
The review here, which is for the latest model, says 56 pounds. It says it's suitable for light touring; but I couldn't imagine doing a multi-day supported tour on one, nor have I ever seen one on such a tour. Where I have occasionally seen them is on a one-day, half-metric, supported ride.
