There are a few variables in a group set, so putting up a weight for a complete set will never be 100% correct.

 

Front mech's are different (band on, braze on and different types of pull)

Rear mech could differ (long or short)

Cassettes come in different combos, each with a different weight.

BB's come in different shell widths and some bike need press fit etc

Chains lengths are slightly different for each bike

Disk brakes use different rotors (6 bolt or splined, and they come in different diameters) - cables will also be different lengths for different bikes.

etc etc

 

Sometimes its better to have no info, rather than incorrect info...

Thy will normally state "lightest config"

 

So they will weigh a short cage and braze on derailer and smallest gear ratio...
