True. 31g for the front thru axle. The fork lost some weight when I cut the steerer and the bonded-in bolt, 47g. So 362g final weight. Not too bad I guess. That D fork with bonded bolt is heavy, and heavier than advertised. I’m gonna guesstimate final bike weight to be 6.3/4 kg.
6.18 kg for a 54 02 VAM AXS Disc 1x, all in (pedals, computer mounts etc):
The Prizma gloss black “paint” for logos etc was a joke…in fact the masking tape used to secure the frame to the cardboard container lifted some of it off, so I decided to change the color way to gold using auto vinyl wrap. I have some Adobe Illustrator ability and a vinyl cutter. Found some matching auto paint and painted a few bits like the spacers amd top cap, thru axle inserts, etc.
Happy with the weight, love the clean look of no cables.

Quick first 30k ride today…huge difference from the 3T Exploro LTD that I moved all the parts over from. Feels very smooth and silent. And light.
