How heavy is your shoe/cleat combo?
Moderator: robbosmans
I've looked way back in this forum - couldn't find a post like this - if there is one (i didn't use search) - I figure there are new members here since then - as well as new products on the market.
I was thinking about how another constant - as far as weight when I ride - is my shoes and cleats. Recently a teammate was bragging about these new Specialized shoes he got - so I lifted them - and they were like air. It got me to thinking about what other shoes and cleats people use - and how heavy they are. We don't ever add shoe and cleat weight to our bike build total weight - but still it is constant - and basically a part of the pedals.
If you'd like to share, please do. Pictures would be great. ALSO - if you could specify the make/model of the shoes and the type of Pedals you use (so I know what cleats they are for).
Here are mine. I got these at a liquidation sale 2 years ago. To me they feel really light - but the scale says otherwise? (i won't know until comparing to others)
Make: I really don't know - is MEM a brand? I can't find anything on them.
Model: No idea. Same as above.
Cleat/pedal: Time Iclic.
SHOES WEIGHT SIZE 42: 670g
CLEATS WEIGHT: 63g
Then take away the weight of a set of cleats...

It's more useful to split the shoe and cleat weight. Weighing components together makes it difficult to compare. Are your shoes+cleats heavy because of the cleats or the shoes? Though I understand not wanting to remove cleats to do the weighing.
Also useful to list shoe size.

Without giving the shoe size, giving the weight is pointless!
All mine are size 46
Bont Vaypor Plus with look keo cleats 600 grams, shoes only 534grams
Bont A3 custom drilled for speedplay 4 bolt with cleats 702grams, shoes only 632grams
Knog Sidewinder SPD/MTB commuter shoes with Eggbeater cleats 1064grams!
I also weighted my neoprene toe covers, 40grams and 50 grams a pair! I thought they weighted nothing…
