That weight seems unlikely... my Spartan with similar parts weighted at least 1.5 more(measured at 30.9 lbs.) RAIL 40s are within a hair of the weight of my pro2evo/flow EX weight, i had basically the same tires, & the same brakes, drivetrain, suspension(except I have the slightly lighter Pike RC.) I don't think there's 1.5 lbs to be had in bars, grips, & cranks, when none of these are carbon, & mine (aefect cranks, Syncros bars, V2 stem) aren't made of lead or anything.

Smells like somebody read one of Devinci's notoriously unreliable frame weight figures & calculated the weight rather than measuring.

You sound a bit jealous there mate. I can't speak for Matt as to whether the bike was weighed or not, but tyre weights can vary a fair bit for the same compound, casing etc and I can imagine other parts vary somewhat too, so 1.5lbs seems quite plausible.

Tire weight varies, max, by about 100g. so If I had the heaviest possible, they had the lightest possible, you're still talking about over a pound, around 500g, to account for. my cranks are 30g lighter. the bars, stem, & saddle are probably a wash. his pedals are around 50g lighter. My frame is a medium, so even his frame is heavier.

If you think 1.5 lbs is plausible on two comparable bikes with aluminum parts, you're insane. Unless I had some old school freeride bike parts(I have a set of diabolus cranks that weigh twice what these cranks do) aluminum parts don't vary that much.
