Depends like everyone is saying. For a XC bike, uhh, it might be alittle heavy For an "all mountain bike" yeah, still pretty heavy. For a freeride/DH/DH race bike, it's not bad.

Throw the stick!!!!
Dunno, my full suspension bikes weigh 22 pounds and 25 pounds. They are perfect for me, wouldn't last long for downhill or freeriding though.

Freeride and Downhills probably average 40 pounds.
