My carbon 27.5 Roval 38i with CC and 2.8 Butcher front 2.6 Purgatory rear are each a pound heavier than the stock 29" 30i Raceface Aeffect with 2.3 DHF/Rs the bike came with, but the feeling and performance of the tires with the CC is SO much better that it's worth the weight penalty for me. I've recently gone back to the 29" just to see and I just don't like the feeling.
