My '85 Trek 460 with True Temper1 lugged steel frame weighed 23lbs coming out of the factory. Then came bike bag, 26oz water bottle and mini-pump. But really, it's the engine that weighs the most and easiest to trim pounds from.

My lightest is a 84 Trek 660 lugged steel job with all Suntour Superbe components and Torelli Master Series rims and comes in at 21 pounds. BUT, when I use to race it I had tubulars, a racing saddle (I now have a Brooks Swift TI on it) lighter bar, stem (now a Nitto Technomic), lighter headset and seat post, and the thing just tipped the scale at a hair over 19.

No shame either I picked up a 30# Denali also, as much do to the price as not having any bike shops near by. Mostly though I got a bike, helmit and pump for $202.00 I f I see the short side of 200# I will reward myself with a new bike but for now I just need to put some miles under my legs and get the lbs. off.

I have no idea how much my bike weighs, and I don't feel too compelled to find out. As for me, I know that I'm far too fat for this sport.

Got 2 bikes with very different personalities:
My CAAD10-4 w/ Ksyrium SL's is minimally equipped with a pump, small saddle bag (w/ 1 mini tool, 1 spare tube, 1 patch kit, 2 tire levers), front + back lights. Weighs in at 17lbs +/-0.5lbs.
My '10 Specialized Tricross Expert is loaded with rear rack & panniers. With saddle bag, pump, lights, and no panniers (but with rear rack), it's over 26 lbs. I have no idea how much it'll weigh with 2 days of clothes and snacks for next weekend's ride down in the Outer Banks....
Of course, the heaviest thing weighing down the bike is me... all 200lbs of me.....

18.6 weighed at the LBS when I bought it. No pedals or other items at time of weigh in. Somewhere around 21 or 22 with the under-seat bag and goodies and the aluminum chainring guard.

My last road bike was a 1986 Mangusta 3000. I welcome your comments, before I changed the wheel set weighed in at 35 pounds with no pedals, water, saddle bag, or pump. My current ride is a 2001 GT ZR 3.0; Team Lotto. It weighs in at 15.5 pounds without pedals or water. So I probably haul 19-20 pounds up mountains. Which is such an improvement, I feel like I'm actually good at riding.

This is much more fun when we know how much extra weight the rider has, not just the bike.
We could have a contest to see who the fattest rider is on the lightest bike??
