The Viner is 7.2kg, with pedals / bottle cages / computer. Not bad for a size L. Flies up hills compared to my other road bike (which weighs in at over 9kg at the moment).0

District is 8.3Kg (or 18.3lb in old money).
This includes the extra weight of Halo Twin Rail Courier Berlin tyres to blunt the PF's teeth (work a bloody treat by the way, not just blunted 'em but pulled 'em out with pliers I reckon. They do make an odd sort of squealing noise when you're banked over though), flip flop hub and a chicken feather in the brake slack adjuster on the bars.
Made a bit lighter though with lots of lovely titanium 8)FCN 5 belt driven fixie for city bits
CAADX 105 beastie for bumpy bits

Got a very odd look from our receptionist by the way when she came into my office to find me balancing my bike on the postal scales.....
She stopped, looked like she was about to say something and then left.
I suspect she thinks I'm weird.FCN 5 belt driven fixie for city bits

It's a bog standard digital set of scales that I bought over eBay, UltraShip Ultra 75, but it's max rating is 34Kg.
Actually I do often ship fairly heavy stuff - I'm sales for an engineering company.FCN 5 belt driven fixie for city bits

11.4Kg with rack and panniers (which add 0.75Kg near enough).
Frame is biggest overweight right now!

Steel: about 10.5Kg.
The hybrid is a hefty b*gger, about 12 including guards and rack, exculding pannier and lock. Fully laden, it's a good workout.Bike/Train commuter: Brompton S2L - "Machete"

9kg nearly spot on with empty bottle and light / computer mounts and peddles."Bed is for sleepy people.

Guessing about 8.5kg as it feels a tad heavier than the Wilier - it's a Ribble Audax thing, but minus gears, cassette, shifters etc.0
