GS wheel weight

Post by mitmaks »

I was wondering how much GS wheel weighs? Particularly SE honeycomb if it's different from regular GS.

The 5 spoke 15" are the lightest available, that I know of... IIRC, they're around 13-14 pounds each?

The weight of the 5 spokes are 13lbs, give or take 0.5 pounds. http://www.mx-3.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=70121&
i don't know what the honeycomb rims weigh but i'm 100% positive that they're heavier than the 5 spokes because i've held both rims without tires at the same time but for some reason i forgot to weigh the honeycomb rims, probably because i didn't care, they're ugly and heavier than the 5 spokes =)

I estimate the honeycombs to be around 16 pounds. Compared to my 5 spokes at least... They do have different tires, so that'll affect it as well.
