I'm surprised he hasn't made a comment here yet.
I just watched a video this morning of the Scott Foil Premium Disc when it came out back in 2017-2018, and the Scott rep stated that the disc brake version was 40g heavier than the rim brake one. Of course, this is a 10k$+ bike, but it gives a good idea on how heavier it actually his.
