don't forget to add the bolts and the bars.......plus, there are different frame set-ups. the heavier it is the safer you will be.

If I understand you, then you would agree with me avoiding the Traklite 2.0 wheels. GAWD, the spokes on them look skinny!!!

i'd still get it. it's only a few lb difference. you won't even feel the hp difference. plus, if you really like it. get it. it's not like your going out there on the street and race everyone.

the frame alone weights probably over 100lbs.

Willie, I've just searched for quite a bit and it seems the answer is 20 lbs or so for the "S" wheels.

Where are you getting your info?

The Traklite 1.0 wheels weigh in at 12 pounds.
