Hi guys,
We will be informally weighing the 2016 American Classic 420 Aero 3 wheelset. The test subjects have tires, tubes and a cassette installed, of which I don't have the actual weights. We will just subtract the advertised weights from the values that came up from the scale.
Front wheel:
- Continental Grand Prix 4000 SII with about 2,300 kms on them
- Continental Race Inner Tubes. with about 2,300 kms on them
Total weight is 996 grams.
The weight of the tires would be 225 grams as advertised by the manufacturer.
The weight of the tubes are around 65 grams.
The test wheels have no Quick Releases installed. For stock American Classic QR weights, you can check out this entry: http://quezongritty.blogspot.com/2016/08/american-classic-420-aero-3-skewers.html
Less the tires and tubes, the front wheel comes to about 706 grams. In American Classic's website, their front wheel is advertised as 663 grams.
Rear Wheel:
- Continental Grand Prix 4000 SII with about 2,300 kms on them
- Continental Race Inner Tubes. with about 2,300 kms on them
The weight of the tires would be 225 grams as advertised by the manufacturer.
The weight of the tubes are around 65 grams.
The weight of the Shimano 105 11-28 cassette would be 227 grams.
Less the tires, tubes and cassette, the front wheel comes to about 931 grams. In American Classic's website, their rear wheel is advertised as 867 grams.
My wheelset pair would be around 1,637 grams.
