Weight Summary

• Bike Weight: The most accurate way to determine any bike’s weight is to have us weigh it for you in-store. Bike weights naturally vary based on the specific frame size layout, minor finish coat differences, selected lightweight hardware, and local fluid setup variables.

Please Note: We make every effort to ensure the accuracy of the specification information, but components are subject to change by the manufacturer at any time without notice due to ongoing factory running parts updates.
