I did a re-weigh minus the pedals and accessories (water bottle and cage) which seems to be the standard method and am at 34.08 lbs (ready to ride = 35.26). l'm thinking it will be 32.5-33lbs once I do the tubeless conversion. This was an $1150 bike when new in 2017. 100mm rims and 4.8 tires right now. All that said, I have no complaints with the way the bike rides as is - it is great fun!

I'm interested to see some more actual weights posted (i.e. weigh it with the scale) since about the only thing you usually see is marketing department fantasy weights or guesses of what somebody thinks a bike weighs. Some specs, pics and what you've done to reduce weight, if anything, would be helpful. It would make for a nice database for those searching for a new bike or looking for ways to save some weight.
