I’m sure a disc version is heavier.

Regardless of relative weight, I suggest buyers give consideration to how they will live with a bike, and to buy the lightest bike they can afford. There are no negative tradeoffs to doing so (except at the very top end perhaps), only advantages and gain
Ahhh the base model...those always felt a touch heavier but I will see what we have in stock and maybe try and weigh one. We haven't had a lot of bikes in for so long like that but we do occasionally get trickles.

Agreed on the last part though.
