Hi,
what's actual weight of Ritchey WCS Streem II 40 c/c ? (alloy, now only "strem" on ritchey website)
275gr claimed (42 c/c) but I have some doubts... (my WCS evocurve - claimed 250gr - actually weighs 275gr)
Thank you

My WCS neo-classics came in at just 8 (260 claimed vs 268 actual), so not too severely overweight. I think there's quite a lot of variation in weights of alloy bars, and quite a lot of underestimation, but Ritchey is probably the closest to the mark than most (looking at you Deda.. :wink:).

I can't find any information about wcs streem alloy...
It seems that no one has ever bought (and weighed) this handlebar.

Wcs Neoclassic is a good alternative
