Since my first eMTB ride I myself have lost 16 kg - 98 to 82 kg

But in the same period the bike have gained several kilos ?

Do You also tend to mount more and more stuff on the Your bike ?

I do - and suddenly I have mounted the burly Eddy Current in 2.8" front and rear.
Fantastic tires with good grip an no punctures in more than 1,800 km.
But the bike ended up weighing almost 24,5 kg

The tires alone 2.898 g and with 2x150 ml of sealant is almost 3.2 kg rotational weight

Have just change to Maxxis 2.6" DHF and 2.4" Dissector rear at 29"/27.5"

They weigh in at 1.891 g - 1 kg less (y)
Mounted with Tubolitos tubes - Saves 100 g mores.

Demounted some other stuff - and my Turbo Levo 2018 is now at 22.6 kg with pedals.

Haven ridden it yet due to snow and winter storm - can't wait ?

The lower weight and lower rolling residence must be noticeable
