Hi there,

I´m trying to find out what the actual weight of the Ultegra 6800 crankset is for the 50/34 175mm. configuration. All I´ve been able to find is the weight of the 50/34 172.5 crankset based on a video posted on Youtube by a guy in Romania, which tips the scales at 680 g. without the bottom bracket.

I´ve been checking out different websites but none of them seem to offer the actual weight for the specific configuration I´m looking for.

Does anyone know the actual weight? Alternatively, what do you think might be the weight increase for those extra milimeters?

By the way, I understand the weight of the bottom bracket is around 77 grams.

Thanks

Hope that helps

It really does. Thanks a lot. By the way, did you happen to weigh the bottom bracket too?

I didn't weigh them separately but i did do a total weight.... the cranks + the bb cups + the plastic tube that connects the bb cups came out to 770g

I can be wrong, and have plenty of examples for that ;)
