Tarmac SL2 with Zipp 303's - 13.7
Tarmac SL2 with Williams 30 Clinchers - 15.3
Cervelo P3 TT bike - 17.8
I only have 1 Tarmac, I just wanted to show the difference between weight with race wheels and the wheels I use in training. I'm hoping to do a few upgrades next season and get the bike down to 13.2

I'm having weight-envy....
Is this inclusive of pedals and bottle cages, etc.?
I think I'm in the 17.5 lb range (Seven Axiom, triple crank Shimano Ultegra, DuraAce wheelset, and Easton fork). Damn it, my bike makes me look fat!

I think my Pedal Force RS was 15.6 (or was it 16.6...I can't remember). I'm much more than that. As in I need to lose some more weight else I run the risk of going over the Rec'd weight limit for my wheels.

My Trek is ~18.5lbs with everything, cages, etc. I don't think I had my seat bag (with tube, CO2, etc) on it though.
I'm up to upper 190s after seeing 185 in July. Gotta start working out more, the summer travel has made me lazy.

Bikes: Kestrel Talon
My Kestrel Talon is a pretty typical carbon bike, and it wasn't built up with particularly lightweight components. I haven't weighed it, but suspect it weighs somewhere around 19 - 20 pounds.
The reason I don't care? I weigh 210.

On short, steep climbs I notice the extra weight of the rear triangle on the steel bike. On longer climbs like HW 9 or Mt. Hamilton it's not noticeable. On mixed climbs like Montebello or all of Page Mill it depends on heart rate and how I'm feeling that day. The steel bike is slower to get going but it's like velvet once it is moving.

My main bike (custom Ti) is 17.98 pounds; add computer, bottle cages, bottles and saddle bag, it's probably around 25lbs. I can easily drop a couple of pounds by just changing out my heavy fork and my kevlar-belted, wire bead tires, but I don't have a good excuse to change out the fork yet...and I still have a whole bunch of cheap 315g tires to use up before getting some 200g tires. I current weigh between 170~175lbs...though if I was focusing on climbing performance, I would lose my upper dead-weight and be in the 160~165lbs range (which seems to be my optimal climbing weight from what I can tell in the past). My other Ti bike with S&S couplers weigh ~19lbs (forgot exact number) w/o any accessories added.
