I see carbon bikes and just assume they're somewhere around the 16lb mark. But I'm quite removed from that world in a lot of ways
I think most higher end crabon bikes are 16-17 pounds. Drop a pound or two for a ww build. Realize published “weights” often exclude pedals and bottle cages if they are coming from a manufacturer.

Two points of reference: my CF Roubaix weighs 17 and my Ti Habanero weighs 19. Guess which one rides better and gets 90% of my saddle time?
