Has anyone out there with the 11sp compatible hub model weighed theirs? The website indicates a weight of 1255g, which is up from the previous years. Just wondering if they are coming in near that weight.

The 2012 303 FC tubular was spec'd at 1198gms I believe. Maybe the slight hub redesign for the 11sp capability is what added some weight to gain 60-70gms? Never weighed mine original though, so can't say for sure if they lived up to the original spec. But Zipp isn't one to give bogus numbers. There is always like 10-20gms +- variation on wheels. Zipp is usually right on those numbers.
