I'd say 19-20 lbs. would be pretty respectable.

My P2SL weighs a tad over 18 lbs with Bontrager race lite wheels (ultegra derailleurs, brakes, 1995'ish campy chorus aluminium crankset and BB)

My $1400 Felt weighs 19 lbs so a thousand or two should buy you another pound.

For a tri bike who cares? My old P2K was around 20 lbs, about three more than my road bike.

It seems as if people are embarrased about having a bike over 20lbs!

Just under 25 with a repair kit, pedals and a bottle of water is more likely if you have a metal machine. The Ultegra parts are not heavy, the frame and training wheels add most of the weight.

Right now I have an extra 20 around my waist.... At this point my bike is the least of my concerns;-)

I would say that a stock tri bike with Ultegra would come in between 19-22 lbs. I think my Dual was around 21 lbs before I started to do upgrades over the last few years. It is now at 15.5 lbs and more aero than stock.

I'm shooting for under 190 lbs, combined bike and rider.

Everybody is going to say being aero is more important than weight on a tri bike which is 100% true. if you can go more aero instead of shaving couple of grams that would be much better.
For my opinion difference between Ultegra and Dura Ace is minimal. If you look at the weight to price ratio, it is not that much if you are comparing the old Ultegra vs. new Dura Ace. Biggest differences in weight are the cassettes and cranckset.
but I have to admit if you can get the best of the both worlds it is a way to go. aero and light. I recently switched to a lighter tri bike (16 and sub 16lbs depending on wheel choice) from a heavy tri bike and it makes a huge difference even on flat courses.

It hurts so bad, it feels good.

I was surprised to find my P3sl (stock, but with Adamo saddle) weighed in at 20.8lbs. But then it is a 61cm.

My Zipps weight in at a hefty 22lbs with HED3 and Renn disc. My Titanflex is much less though I have not weighed it yet. My bikes are very aero, as is my position, which gets me near the top of the bike splits, even at my age. Weight doesn't really matter all that much. I use my Zipps all the time on rides with 1,000's of feet of climbing.

Yea, don't get me wrong I'm not losing sleep over it.
I just had the chance to weigh my bike the other day and was surprised by how heavy it is...

The bike is a Giant trinity 07 with mavic cosmic elites, Im thinking most of the weight is in the wheels as with tires and cassette they are around 3kg as a set.

On a side note: Can anyone tell me the weight (or an idea) of the 07 Trinity frame? (full carbon)

Would you mind listing the spec for your Dual? Amazed you got it down that light!

I second that!!!!

i have an old trek y-foil that i converted to a tri bike. it has a full carbon frame, syntace bars, rolf wheels, specialized mondo tires and comes in at a tad over 18 lbs.

When I was upgrading my Light Weight road bike 13.75 lbs, I took a lot of the parts from there and put them on this bike.

I am pretty sure that the Dual is actually under 15.5 lbs but I will not know until I have a new scale which should arrive soon.

I am a firm believer that if you can get the weight of your bike down and make it more aero then this is the best of both worlds. Yes aerodynamics are more important than weight but if you can take 5-6 pounds off your bike and make it more aero, this is a good thing.

with all the talk of bike/ rider combination weight, i'll thorw mine in the mix: 100 lbs.

Weight reduction is important on a climbing bike because you are fighting the force of gravity. Because tris are usually done on flat roads, weight shouldn't be your major concern -- rolling and wind resistance are going to slow you more than gravitation pull. IMO, A good aerodynamic position with aero equipment is more important than weight on a tri bike. I would use my bike dollars on a professional fitting, aero wheels, and funky helmet. I don't ride carbon on my tri/TT bike and I have no desire to do so.

My bike is close to your spec. It's just over 16lbs.
