    Wow, I'm impressed. I didn't realize those in a x9 would be so light.

    that's just the weight off the sizing charts I found.. however someone on minkara weighed it in and it said to be 1/2 pound heavier... so i'm not sure.. I'll have to do it myself the next time i swap tires. but even at 12.5ish~lbs is still impressive for a x9 wheel.

    No joke. Especially with those beefy spokes vs say a 6ul.
