Yep, and the people who comment "Well my bike only weighs _____ much!" Are the same people who have never actually weighed their full bike and don't realize it probably weighs about the same or more. They tend to stick with the manufacturers bogus weight of a small frame w/ a top spec, without pedals or proper tires. Once you go to medium to lower spec, up the frame size to a large or XL, add pedals, EXO+ or DD tires and sealant.. = 33 to 35 pounds.
My new medium 27.5 is exactly 33 pounds with EXO+ and Cushcore XC... which I'm pretty excited about and consider it light!
