2015 Hi-Mod 54cm, cage bolts, seatpost clamp, hanger and plastic cable guide: 822g

PF30 BB: 85g
Headset bearings, crown race, 10mm spacers, 5mm top cone, KP017L Expander: 82g

Actual "in use" weight of stuff that came in the frameset box: 1293g.


Ok so it's the same size. yours must be the new model, mines was bought earlier in the year.

So to compare, my mod weighed 880g plus you can add a few grams for the wire guide and rear deraileur holder. Fork is 357 uncut and the rest of the bits weigh 122g.

Total weight 1328g (estimating final fork weight) plus the missing bits at approx 22g = 1350g.

Mine is a 2015, not the new/different 2016.

There must be a good 100g difference between different hi mod frames from what I gather. Presumably consistency isn't easy in Carbon manufacturing?

"most difficult part of carbon fiber manufacturing is usually consistency. Just a degree or two of change in lay-up between units can reduce the overall strength of one unit to the next by 10-25%"

Same as mines. Of course I've had it stripped and sprayed which could account for a good 50g but I suspect it was a slighly heavier frame to begin with.

Glossy paint weighs a lot more than matte. Anyone measured a matte hi-mod frame?

Wow, I'd thought the nano would be lighter than that. It definitely costs kidneys more!

That sounds really heavy, my fork was 325g uncut / 312g cut. Could be your scale is off?

No I just checked the scales they're fine.

I can't find it now, but I've seen weighing videos from bike shops where the frame had the bits and pieces all attached. The frames had a matte coat and came out to about 740g. Probably got taken down by Cannondale though since they seem to really hate people weighing their stuff.

I think it could be a realistic weight for a matte coat frame, it's a well known fact that glossy paint adds at least 80/100 grams

My painted 2015 Hi-Mod in XL (58cm) with hangars and chainstay protector came in at 830g, cut fork 315g. Would love to sand the thick glossy paint, not sure I have the patience.
