Default Anyone with the Rota Spoon Copies Weighed...

...them? Just curious if they really are 12.5 lbs or if that is an exagerated weight. Thanks!

I weighed my C8's and they came out to 12lbs on the dot.

I believe someone on the teg board weighed theirs, and it was 12.2lbs.

Yup, right around 12 lbs, the weight on the inside of the wheel says they're 11 (505 kg) but it's a tad bit more.
