My setup is very similar to knightmb's. Except that I have smaller (10AH) batteries that weigh about 4 lbs less. My overall bike weight is about 66 lbs; also about 4 less.

 

[Mathurin]

Bike >40 Kg
Me ~68 Kg
Clothing +-6 Kg

Total: ~114 Kg


Bike breaks down as so:
Hub motor 6 Kg, 4Kg lighter then a 5X
Battery 14 Kg, three 12Ah lead bricks
Bike ~16 Kg, cro-mo mtn bike thing.
Tires, rack, front rim >4 Kg

Me 95 KG
bike without battery: 35kg
with 4 12V battery: 55kg
with 8 12V battery 75kg

170KG = 375lbs

The Currie IZIP/Mongoose steel cruiser complete is about 34kg/75lbs

The two stock batteries and carrier (removable) are about 9kg/20lbs

The Unite MY1018 motor and its mounting plate and chain guesstimate at 4kg/9lbs

[Lowell]

Rocky Mountain Experience, minus a few parts, plus an X503 hub, controller, lights, fenders, rack, bag = ~55lb.
91.2V x 18Ah NiMH cells = ~50lbs.

GVW just over 280lbs depending on what gear I'm wearing. Please post rider weight as well...

My Raleigh Puma Bike (not the Trek)

Bike c/w hub and motor/controller total 38lbs
37V 15Ah Lipo Battery 9lb (this is in my ruck sack)
My weight 180lbs

This is a light bike as its stripped of most of the usual bike stuff and handles the best out of all my rides, the weight distribution is perfect, I can lift the bike with 1 finger! (just) :lol: no its so light, easy for me to lift and carry up steps and over farm gates when out on the trails, I know not all people would be happy with the battery on their backs but I am! as the increase in bike handling is quite noticeable.

Heck I lost 50lbs in total weight in the last couple of years through cycling I think I can hold 9lb on me without too much trouble!!

Cheers

Yeah, its heavy, but it doesn't look like an electric bike, so I'm happy.

 

[patrick_mahoney]

Columbia Trailhead mountain bike 41lbs. (18kg)
44V 17.6Ah lithium ion battery 11lbs. (5kg)
Crystalyte 5304 motor on 26" tire 26lbs. (12kg)
Controller + throttle + lights +etc 9lbs. (4kg)

We have everything in our house set to kilograms and Celsius to get the kids used to metric - conversions to pounds are approximate. I weighed the complete bike and got 39kg. The weights of the sub-components come from Google (and the battery, from a scale).

Total: 86lbs (39kg)
