6.83Kg (with battery pack) - remember they are clincher wheels and I put 2 sets of rim strip in each wheel just to make sure - take out 1 rim strip should be 6.80kg on the dot but I like playing it safe!

Hard to say, not a lot of detail given, but it looks like it may be a few grams heavier than the Addict SL. Probably more expensive than the Scott too.

The frame has a claimed weight of 790g while the frameset – the frame, fork, headset and seatpost – is said to be 1,340g.

 

The Urgestalt frameset will sell for £3,950

[Christie]

Costs R60k then. Addict SL weighs 1000 grams for the frame and fork.

 

The LW frame looks very nice, but there is competition already in that space: Super6 evo, Cervelo r5, etc. and Trek, Specialized will have their lightest frames there soon (if not already)

The Lightweight is so hot slap on Lightweight wheels and you cant ask for much more.,
