I just looked up the weight of the Marathon Plus (35c) that I use... 890g. The 38s are 940g. It's crazy thinking of tyres adding so much weight to a bike.
I knew my wheelset is the heaviest part of my bike, but that's nuts, chukkers, 48 sapin strong spokes and 28 Marathons must weigh a metric fuckton.
But at the same time it's completely solid, and as I just spent 24 hours getting battered by Josh, Luca and Hayden I'm grateful of that. As Sandy said I wouldn't want to change my wheels mid game (or even take spare wheels with me)
