So... ~52 pounds maybe? That's based off zero science and 100% how I feel about things lol.
id be interested to see weights on seibon's products, but i'm going to talk to a carbon parts manufacturer here in Chicago to see if they'd be interested in doing some 86 products. just thought id see what your estimates were.
