[RBW] Re: The Rivendell Bike Weight Thread
Hmm, I don't have a scale. Observations from the real world on last week's group ride: I didn't have to ride around standing water from recent rainfall to avoid striping my back, didn't have to ride around gravel on the roadway in places where streets had been torn up but not yet repaved, I was not unnerved by uneven road surfaces descending and I stopped to provide aid with my full-size frame pump to a rider on a CF super light who had a flat to a 23c tire and flubbed his CO2 thingy and had no other way to air up the new tube. As we rode back to the tail of the group I enjoyed my second bottle of water on the subsequent climb, CF guy stopped at a trash can along the river path and discarded both the tube and the empty gas bulbs. Weighing me down. Yeah. I'll weigh my Rambouillet sometime and it'll be a number. I tend to think of it as bringing enough bike when the peripherals draw weight consternation from the obsessive camp.

[RBW] Re: The Rivendell Bike Weight Thread
Andy I like what you had to say about utility. I agree that a truly stripped down bike that is often not enough bike for the job is kind of lame. That said, a stripped down bike that is just enough bike for a stripped down application can be cool, too. Anyway, the only build I have that I sweated the weight is not a Rivendell. It's my main brevet bike. I list it here, at the risk of being too far OT, just because it's a build kit that could work just as well on a Rivendell. The summary highlight is that it's a steel frameset, wide tires, all metal parts, a front rack and decaleur, dynamo hub, front and rear lights, full coverage fenders and fender flap, and a bell, and still weighs 21.0 lbs. It features a lot of nice MUSA parts. https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-FrkwigUjetg/U9-dA0VGLTI/CIg/YFuFnMUguq0/s1600/IMG_3494.JPG My Rawland Stag Frameset: Rawland Stag Size Large (58cm), Jeff Lyon custom threadless fork, Miche headset Wheelset: White T11 R hub, Schmidt front, Pacenti PL23 rims, Pari-moto tires, Schwalbe SV14A tubes (from Riv), allen key skewers Drivetrain: Rene Herse cranks, Ultegra SPD pedals, Dura Ace 10sp F+R Ders, and DT shifters. SRAM 11-26 cassette and chain, WI Ti BB. Components: Soba bars, Kelly Stem, CR720 brakes (from Riv), modified Tektro brakelevers, Paul Funky Monkey hangers, Ultegra Seatpost, Selle Italia SLR Ti saddle, newbaums tape (from Riv) Extras: Grand Bois rack, Berthoud decaleur, hanging Edelux headlamp (from Riv), Ti King Cages (from Riv), alloy crane bell, Honjo hammered fenders, homemade flap, Pixeo battery powered taillight. The only carbon bit on the bike is the rear derailer pulley cage has some carbon. I did a few weight shaving tricks in the build. I had been shooting for under 19lbs when the fenders and lights were off, but as you could predict, I never ride it with the fenders and lights removed, so who knows whether I actually made it. :) Bill Lindsay El Cerrito, CA On Monday, August 4, 2014 2:15:10 AM UTC-7, ascpgh wrote: Hmm, I don't have a scale. Observations from the real world on last week's group ride: I didn't have to ride around standing water from recent rainfall to avoid striping my back, didn't have to ride around gravel on the roadway in places where streets had been torn up but not yet repaved, I was not unnerved by uneven road surfaces descending and I stopped to provide aid with my full-size frame pump to a rider on a CF super light who had a flat to a 23c tire and flubbed his CO2 thingy and had no other way to air up the new tube. As we rode back to the tail of the group I enjoyed my second bottle of water on the subsequent climb, CF guy stopped at a trash can along the river path and discarded both the tube and the empty gas bulbs. Weighing me down. Yeah. I'll weigh my Rambouillet sometime and it'll be a number. I tend to think of it as bringing enough bike when the peripherals draw weight consternation from the obsessive camp.

Question for weight savings: Given the mass of different objects, where does it make sense to go aluminum OR titanium over steel? Leaving out crabon since that's not the discussion - seatpost - Stem - Bolts for braze ons - Bottom Bracket - Saddle rails - Racks(Al) - pedal spindles - any others?

Those Atlantis and San Marcos weights are really impressive. That Atlantis build has basically nothing light on it, has full-on heavy wheels, and still is only 26 pounds? That's a big surprise. The San Marcos would be under 20lbs if you took off the kickstand, pump and seat bag? That's incredible. I never would have thought that possible. It's got 2 top tubes for gosh sake! There are pounds to be taken off both builds, but 'reasonable' is in the eye of the beholder. I assume you mean reasonable in dollars. Chasing grams on a perfectly good build is a fool's errand.

My curousity beat my who cares? attitude. 58 cm Atlantis, pretty standard Rivendell build (Brooks, Sugino triple, etc), with Soma C-lines on Mavic A-719 rims, Tubus Cosmo rear rack small Nitto front, Acorn boxy bag with usual assortment of junk: 36-1/2 lbs.(dry; no water). Since I had the scale handy I weighed the Acorn bag alone @ 5 lbs. To get under 30 lbs would mean giving up a lot of utility (not my kickstand!). Ain't gonna happen. Still, this is a fun exercise every once in a while. IIRC, my bike always gains weight. Just weighed my wife's 47 cm Atlantis: 30 lbs as she usually rides it: Riv built plus kickstand, cheap aluminum rack with REI trunk bag, and small Acorn handlebar bag. Without the trunk bag, 27 lbs. 32 hole wheels w/Compass tires. Can't recall the seat but it's not a Brooks, something lighter. dougP On Sunday, August 3, 2014 1:04:20 PM UTC-7, lungimsam wrote: Since there has been curiosity about peoples' complete bikes' and/or frames' weights, I figured it would be fun to reveal how much our Rivbikes weigh.

[RBW] Re: The Rivendell Bike Weight Thread
I posted the weight of my 54cm Hunqapillar yesterday (31.4 lbs. with nothing but a rear rack) and now I'm 'weighing in' with my 56cm Atlantis. It tips the scales at a svelte 29.4 pounds with SKS fenders and a Nitto rear rack. The Atlantis is built with components typical for a Rivendell: Brooks B17 saddle Soma mustache bars Nitto Technomic stem Sugino XD2 triple crankset, Silver bar end shifters Tektro Oryx cantilever brakes Tektro 200 brake levers Grip King pedals Deore XT hubs 8-speed cassette Deore rear der Suntour XC LTD front der Alex DA16 rims with 1.5 x 26 Pasela Tourguard tires It would be reasonable to expect a Hunqapillar to weight about two pounds more than an Atlantis with roughly the same components and accessories. At least that is my experience. Some of the difference in my case is the 26x1.5 Pasela tires on my Atlantis are significantly lighter than the 700x50 Schwalbe Big Bens on the Hunq. This thread is interesting - so much of the weight of a bike is in the components, lights, accessories, racks, bags, and what is inside the bags. That stuff has weight, but it is what makes a bicycle more comfortable, practical and useful. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: The Rivendell Bike Weight Thread
Oh. I see I'm not playing nice. Model: 2013 Sam Hillborne Framesize: 52 cm (old sizing) Weight: 35 lbs includes Sackville small seat bag with Sackville tool roll inside (tube, patch kit, multitool inside), empty bottles, Acorn handlebar bag (empty), bottles (empty), and Zefal Pump. I am going to guess 31-32 lbs without all of that. It is a standard build with change outs of noodle bars for Albas and additions of a Brooks B67 saddle, Shimano Dura-Ace bar ends for silver levers, and Thin Gripsters. The 36 hole Velocity Atlas front rim was changed out for a 32 hole Velocity Synergy with a Shimano LX Dynamo and there is an Eyc front headlamp (cool little light) and Dyno Rack Light. I added a Nitto Mark's Front Rack M1 and Nitto M14 in back. Hoommm. Let's not be hasty. I guess i's not a standard build any more. That seems to happen with these bikes. ~Tom On Monday, August 4, 2014 8:15:33 PM UTC-7, Tom Virgil wrote: https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-QmGinrFmagw/U-BMNW_ovJI/AF0/BqiNnKKshFE/s1600/14130213923_0c4dda5fba_o.jpg https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-QmGinrFmagw/U-BMNW_ovJI/AF0/BqiNnKKshFE/s1600/14130213923_0c4dda5fba_o.jpg 35 pounds for this puppy. ~Tom On Sunday, August 3, 2014 1:04:20 PM UTC-7, lungimsam wrote: Since there has been curiosity about peoples' complete bikes' and/or frames' weights, I figured it would be fun to reveal how much our Rivbikes weigh.

20 lb eh? I weighed my 68 cm Bomba with racks and lock but no bags recently when I was considering boxing it up to ship to myself. SON dyno front hub, Phil Wood rear, 60 mm Big Apples, Berthoud SS fenders. It was 18 kg and change. I put an Ursus Jumbo kickstand on today, so I'm thinking I might have tipped 20 kg... If I go past a public weighbridge anytime soon I'll weigh in and report back! Heavy-ass bike yes, but I don't think there's one single component I would want to remove. Everything's paying its way. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: The Rivendell Bike Weight Thread
I climbed on the bathroom scale with my Hunqapillar and the scale said 47lbs (minus the rider)! So I emptied my saddle sack onto the kitchen scale and the contents came to 5lbs (maybe I don't need so many Irish straps?), and I would guess the medium saddlesack is about 3-4lbs, since the the medium shopsack is 1lb, so my 54cm Hunq is about 38-39lbs with: Standard Hunqapillar albatross bar build Nitto small front big back racks Medium Wald basket SKS fenders Riv mudflaps 50mm Marathon Supremes Brooks flyer select saddle White Industries pedals BG halfclips Son Dynamo Luxos U headlamp 2 King Cage Iris bottle cages 1 brass Crane bell 1 mirror I guess I better recheck how much weight my bike racks can hold.

Would be informative to know: 1. Model 2. Framesize 3. Weight of complete build, or your frameset. (Including fenders/bottlecages/racks/lights/bells is ok since dismantle-ization would be unfair to expect of a complete build. But no bags/bottles on board, please). 4. Build list, if you feel up to all that typing. Would be fun to see what everyone is hanging on their Rivs anyway. But that is a lot to ask and not expected. I would start, but I have to go home and weight the bikes first. So I will try to report back soon with my Sam and Bleriot weights. And if you guys feel strongly about this being inappropriate for Riv-culture, please delete the thread, but don't run me outta the forum on a rail. This is all intended in good fun and info-purposes. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] Re: The Rivendell Bike Weight Thread
And I can't figure out if it should be with racks, bags, and baskets...and if so, which racks, bags, and baskets? In any case my Hunq, with motor, feels about a half pound lighter than it did this morning before my 20 mile ride. Does that count?

I'm confused. Do you want the weight of the bike going uphill or coming downhill? 'Cause there's no way they're the same.

Patrick, just measure the weight going up, and then measure going down and divide by 2 to get the average weight.

My 54cm Hunqapillar weighs 31.4 pounds with no fenders, bags or pump. Here are some aspects of the build that might impact on the weight: Schwalbe 50mm Big Ben tires SON dyno hub Soma mustache bars Brooks B17 MKS Grip King pedals 2 Blackburn bottle cages Avid V-brakes Simplex Retrofriction shifters Sugino XD2 triple crankset Racktime Addit rear rack (advertised weight 1.6 pounds) Cateye 5-LED rear light So not a lightweight bike, but if that is what I wanted I would have bought something in carbon fiber. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

The weigh-in was had...contenders had a pretty nice stare down...the results are: Bleriot 34.4 lbs. Heavy weight build includes Schwalbe tires, B17, big Carradice (didn't empty...just a tube or two, couple levers, patch kit, etc), fenders, Blackburn rear rack, MKS Touring pedals, battery light. It's a smooth 34 pounds. https://www.flickr.com/photos/77502424@N00/14596538148/ Riv Road 25.6. B17, frame pump, Sugino PX crank and mainly 105 components. Tires are Pasela TG's. Feels pretty light to me. https://www.flickr.com/photos/77502424@N00/14508252566/ The lightest in fleet is a 74 Hetchins. Comes in at about 23lbs. Going to do a triathlon on this in a couple weeks...should freak out the tri geeks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.
