Ok just a quick show of hands. Just curious about the weight of your, ALLEZ COMP bikes in particular.
I purchased mine in May and am very pleased, however i put it on some scales today i was rather shocked.
After purchasing my candy red stallion i change the wheels, purely because i prefered the look of the Ksyriums over the Shimano wheelset. ( i understand you guys in America would have these as standard. ) I also changed the stem(ritchey WCS), seatpost (use carbon) and the saddle (selle SLR) otherwise standard.
Now my steed comes out at 18.1 pounds for the 56cm frame with these lighter components. This doesnt seem right and im a bit dissapointed. What about you??????

The wheels are heavy at 1800+ grams. But yea mine is heavier than I would have though and I can't quite figure out what weighs so much? Possibly an upgrade to the C4 all carbon fork would help?
