just for comparison, I weighed both here that I had.

DC2R: 8.8 oz
DC5R: 5.4 oz

This measurement was done on a ROYAL rc 40 postal scale. And to make sure, I measured all 30 of the DC5R ***** I have to verify, lol

a **** with a different mass will feel different. I'm running the SPOON titanium **** on my DC2R now and it really feels like nothing.

for the DC5R and DC2R *****, yes, they get hot and cold, but nothing that bad. I ussually drive with a set of Sparco gloves in the winter time. As for the SPOON Titanium, I do not have enough evidence if it does the same. As I only drive on the track with the R and with Sparco gloves.
