I honestly do not want to know.

my fully loaded commuter bike is 55 lbs on a light day, 63 lbs on a heavy day (with laptop).
28 year old mtn bike, more than 100K miles total, 30 mile per day flat commute, 5 days a week...

Okay, the last few weeks, I've removed everything from the bike and got some nice Pasela TG tires... I think my bike is officially under 30 pounds now.

As a side note, the local rando group has what they call the "Metal" of Honor. Some unlucky schmuck does the 200K or whatever, and when they're getting ready to start, they hide a 5 lb weight in one of their bags!

Last guy this happened to nearly went postal. He didn't find out until the ride was over.

That Metal of Honor is hilarious.
Mine is about 23lbs winter, 20lbs summer. As light as it gets for 30+ mile commute a day in S. Cal.
Than... there is my folding bike (backup)... starts around 35lbs... typically loaded around 45lbs... winter time... up to 55lbs. (Jeez... now I know why I miss train sometimes on this bike...)

With me on or off? On, about 300 pounds.

So I'm definitely not the only guy shlepping a heavy bike around. I bet if I took the lock and other stuff out of the panniers it'd probably tip the scales closer to 30 lb or so. I just seem really sluggish during the winter and I think it's because in addition to my regular stuff I take to work, I'm carrying a couple other clothing items I may or may not need. Also, it seems like the winds are worse in the winter and for whatever reason I just feel slower wearing all the extra layers than when I'm just tights and a long sleeve jersey or better yet shorts and short sleeve jersey. Ah - can't wait for Spring!

Mines heavy enough that when I was parked in my LBS and another regular who was looking at it tried to pick it up he could just get the back wheel off the ground. BTW my U-lock weighs 6 lbs.

I have a 2011 trek fx 7.9 that i have tweaked. it weighs 22.5 with saddle, pedals, luggage rack and water bottle holders.
When I add my Novara Pannier trunk bag with all my tools and my nite lite 1200 lumen head lite with battery and a couple of full water bottles it jumps up to 28 pounds.. 34 if I realy load myself down with a heavy lunch and extra clothes.
Mind you i have XTR deraileurs an FSA gossamer compact triple and dt swiss wheels/hubs with 700x32 shwalbe marathon plus tires, I also use a TUBUS titanium rear luggage rack.
I switched the stock front fork to a winwood dualist all carbon so I could run a disk brake in the front. I left the stock XTR rim brakes in the rear.
It is a sweet ride and about as light as your going to get for a (fast) commuter bike - the thiefs eye this bike everyday as i roll it into my office for safe keeping.

Same here ... what you don't know can't hurt you!

However, I make an effort to keep the weight of my bike and gear at a minimum because my commute route is very hilly. I'm guessing that my bike with rack, fenders, seatbag, water bottle, lights, computer, etc. weighs in the upper 20s. Not sure how much clothes and food add but that changes on a day-to-day basis.

One thing I appreciate about riding a relatively heavy commuter all week is that my Eddy Merckx feels really fast and light on weekend rides. It probably weighs 10 lbs less than my loaded commuter.

How do you like the 7.9? I love my FX series bikes, and I imagine the 7.9 would be a really nice ride.

no idea but I'm guessing as much as a stripped down '67 Schwinn Suburban 5spd.

Helium has been used in the past by professional athletes to make their bike lighter.

Anyway, on topic, 14 kilos. Which is less than I thought a 1988 hi-ten steel bike would weigh with a heavy Brooks B66 saddle, a hub gear dynamo, fenders, a luggage carrier, a lock, and dress guards.

Normally just a lunch box is added to this. Occasionally, a pannier if I have plans to go shopping.

main commuter - around 20lbs I guess. It's an aluminium frame with Ultegra, Mavic Aksiums, 700x23c, no fenders/racks, etc.
hybrid/wet weather bike - I'd guess around 27-30 lbs. 700x32c. I'm planning to add a rear rack which will add a little bit (this is also my utility/kidseat/towing bike).
MTB/winter bike 30+ lbs. The only time I've "weighed" it was before I put fenders, studded tires, front disc, and wider rimmed wheels on, and it was about 30lbs then.

i only carry clothes in/out once a week at most, and that's only a few pounds worth in a backpack.

My winter commuter weighs 50 pounds with gear which includes my panniers, tools, and extra clothes.

Summer weight can be pretty variable depending on the bike and can always add 8-10 pounds for gear which usually includes water and/or a thermos of tea.

I weighed my Rocky Mountain once at a bike shop and it was a bit over 50 pounds, loaded with my two panniers, lock, and stuff. I had done a little shopping so it was a little heavier than it is for my normal commute. I bet my normal commute load adds up to over 40 pounds. I carry stuff for work too.

I don' think the Fargo isn't any lighter than the Rocky Mountain.

It is a veritable boat anchor. Much of the weight is batteries for the redundant lighting systems. I am grateful that Aldine Drive has reopened. Hauling that thing up 14% Texas St. was getting old, even with a triple. Toward the end of May I'll start riding a road racer again.

That is awesome lol...

Mine is around 25 until I put a water bottle, lights, and 2 pound lock. Prob close to 30 pounds, plus ~8 pounds in my bag on my back. It's a lot lighter than my old Road Bike, which was a legit 40 pounds with accessories. Freakin' tank.

I call mine the 30-30 bike: Over 30 years old and over 30 pounds. On Fridays when I truck the weeks dirty laundry home (along with misc. work material) I bet I tip the scales at over 50.

Wow! I never thought of myself as an ultralight sort of rider, but in this crowd I suppose I qualify. My summer bike weighs in just under 30 pounds. My winter bike weighs in just over 30 pounds. That's a bike, a rack, and empty panniers.

My extrabike weighs 50 pounds before it gets any gear added to it... the rear bags are fixed to the bike and cannot be removed without tools.



Because of the nearly perfect weight distribution the back wheel is less weighted than a conventional bicycle and it does not feel like a 50 pound ride... have been thinking of adding an electric front drive which would probably bring the weight into the 80 pounds range but would offer all wheel drive capability.

Mind you... I still can manage to get this bike up some decent hills despite having one gimpy leg due to the low gearing and how well the bike handles weight.

Unloaded? I'm going to guess roughly around 30lbs. It's a steel touring bike.

As I look at the empty space within that rear triangle, it just screams out to me as the perfect place for a custom frame bag. These super-long cargo bikes intrigue me. It becomes something of a game to figure out how much stuff you can pile on and still move at a reasonable speed.
