I was astounded at the weight. My current roadie is around 10 kg, so this is a serious difference. There's a lot of carbon on the bike, which contributes to the lighter weight. The frame and fork is 100% carbon except for the fork tips and dropouts [somebody correct me if I'm wrong]. The Chorus componentry is pretty light as well.
