2014 Scott Addict SL

[jnsv]

It is the Team Issue, not sl. All I'm stating is what my eyes witnessed. With bb, 790g!

According to Scott only the SL is claimed to have a 1kg frameset not the Team Issue

[jnsv]

Yes. I'm aware of this. When u add 790 and 310, u get 1100 grams. Again, we were joking.

Indeed only the SL would weigh that little. Then again, the 5.65kg you have listed for your Addict strikes me as low considering you're running clinchers and not particularly light finishing kit. The Addict SL weighs in at 5.88kg with a lighter groupset, wheels and similar finishing kit.

[jnsv]

That's a typo. Let me fix it. it should be 5.75. I'm going to get my bike tuned tomorrow, let me take a pic for you on the scale. So you can feel better about yourself.

I just built 2014 team issue, I guess 100 grams heavier with the paint. The frame weighed 790 grams with DA bottom bracket and 310 grams for the fork, uncut.

It weighed in at 5750 grams without pedals. 5.9kg with Speedplay TI pedals.

And here you say it's 5.9kg. Do you not normally ride with pedals?

I can't speak for your bike. We used the park tool scale and I own the 2014 (52cm) black Addict TI. It weighed in at 790 and the fork (uncut) weighed 310. The sales manager and I joked about it not weighing under 1kg for both since he sold me on the idea it was less than 1kg. Hope this helps.

That's your sales manager's fault. The Addict Team Issue (HMX) was never quoted as under 1kg, only the Addict SL (HMX-SL) was. 1100g with an uncut fork is pretty bang on Scott's claim for the Team Issue frame/fork.

If i'm correct the paint of the 2014 version is just black and the 2015 has some heavy colours like white etc? In some others topics there are some huge differents because of the paintjob.

Definitely way more paint on the 2015 bike. Which is OK, because it looks sweet as. Though I'm still annoyed that they didn't do a replica of Chava's electric orange / blue scheme for last years Tour. If that ever comes out, shut up and take my money!

I almost picked up an SL this year. The red outline graphics killed it for me.

When manufacturers weigh their bikes, is it with or without pedals? Get a job?

It is the accepted rule on this forum that the bike is weighed with pedals attached and one bidon cage as this is how you would ride it at bare minimum, this allows direct comparison with other users posted build weights

Mate, if that's what you've gotta do to feel better about the weight of your bike then be my guest. A bike with no pedals is as good as no bike at all.

[jnsv]

You're stating the obvious. So tell that to the manufacturers....and move on with your life mate!

[Grill]

You're missing the point. Manufacturers numbers don't matter, actual numbers do (thus the listings). Of all the members of this forum I can pretty much guarantee that you're the only not including pedals in the final figure. Pedantic? Yes, but that's pretty much the point of this forum.

[jnsv]

It's about being consistent with "industry" standards. But I agree pedals matter, hence the 2 different weight posted mate! I'm done with your boring debate.
