Just received a Topeak bike stand for our Bike Patrol here at Snowshoe Mountain for doing repairs to the patroller’s bikes and found out it has a digital scale built into the stand that is within 20 grams accuracy. So I just had to bring it home and weigh all the important bikes in the stable and thought some of you might find it kind of interesting. I have listed the main components that adorn the frames.

Blue Rauler 20.92 lbs. Campagnolo 50th Anniversary

Green Rauler 21.73 lbs. Shimano 105 STI triple

Burgundy Rauler 21.64 lbs. mainly Shimano 600 downtube shifters

Fuso with Look Carbon fork steel steerer 20.49 lbs. Shimano STI Ultegra 9 speed double

Weigle 20.83 lbs. Shimano STI Dura Ace 8 speed double

Tommaso frame & fork with 600 headset 6.08 lbs.

Tommasini frame & fork with 600 headset 6.15 lbs.

This is kind of a nice feature to a decent work stand, particularly if you would like to know the weight of your bikes and have not yet purchased a scale.
