Weight of the X-metals

[BHarry]

Inspired by @Rustpot thread on frame weight, I was curious about the different weights of the X-metal lineup. With the help of my wife's food scale, here are the results.

The heavy weight is unsurprisingly the Romeo at 46g.

Number 2 is the XX at 45g.

The biggest surprise was the Penny in third at 44g.

Then the X-squared at 42g

Tied with the Juliet at 42g

And the Mars at 42g.

Next is the Half-X at 38g.

Then the Romeo 2 at 35g.

Just for fun...the Badman is 38g

Very interesting! What about Romeo 2? That frame is super light.

Sorry, kid, cooking and my damn phone made it a little more difficult than imagined...

I know Juliets are light enough that you don't realize they aren't on top your head anymore. I want that pair back. Bad.

Carbon blades?

Cool, so the R2 is just over an ounce then! This was awesome, thank you for taking the time to do this! A little surprised the Penny is the 3rd heaviest frame but I guess it is fairly sturdy..

i am surprised that massive nosebridge on the r1 only cost it a 1 gram diff from the xx..
