Weight Weenies

This is so frustrating. For 2019 it seems all manufacturers decided NOT to post bike and/or frameweights.

The 2019 non Aero Orbea Orca looks so nice, but impossible to fid any numbers on framesweight....

Claimed 795g for the frame and 315g for the fork, for the LTD edition

My Orca disc frame came in at almost 900g on the nose for a 53cm with no hardware. They didn't change the frame from 2018-2019 so it should be accurate. I imagine the paint added a good few grams though. I don't recall the fork weight unfortunately.

Mine is stripped and at fat creations.

Size 51 is 790g bang on - literallty just the frame!
Forks = 335g.

sub paint is less than 650g

got a 2019 Orca OMR frameset before the winter in a 53, frame and fork was high ~800g ish. Mine's got a two-tone matte paint job so could affect the weight.
