What do you weigh your bike with?

this looks good:

I use an old style coil spring scale, bought for weighing suitcases. It is accurate enough and consistent too. But it and the one you linked to both have the same problem in that someone has to lift the gauge and bike up in the air and stop their arms from quivering while someone else reads the scale!

If only my digital bathroom scales were consistent enough, I could weigh me with and without bike and subtract the difference!

Easiest way to weigh an ebike. Lift with both hands, and see which bollock pops first. If both pop, it must be the new flyon.

this looks good:

I have one that looks exactly the same as that but unbranded (so it will be the same ...) and it works very well for weighing stuff! Can recommend it.

I don’t it’s an heavy ebike the weight is of no consequence.

Last time I did it on set of scales, weighed myself, then weighed myself holding the bike

Also a ~5€ luggage scale...

I don’t it’s an heavy ebike the weight is of no consequence.

I didn’t weigh my previous motorless bike or my current eBike; I’m 20 lbs overweight at 204 lbs so a few extra pounds on the bike doesn’t bother me. As a former chronic breaker of hubs and spokes and ripper of tire sidewalls I now choose heavy and durable components over light weight parts. The only time I notice bike weight is when I put it on the rack.

I use the internet....read I don’t care what the weight is

Set of scales screwed to garage ceiling. Cost a few quid from eBay.

Bathroom scales. They’re accurate enough.

Its not like I weigh my bikes often, it was just interesting to compare: “wow my Kenevo is 50% heavier than my trail bike....wow my trail bike is really heavy...how is my DH bike lighter than my trail bike...”

Then I went and rode bikes again and stopped caring about weight.

Suitcase scales

Bathroom scale, if you're uncomfortable to weight yourself with bike you can weight each wheel separatelly and then add both values together ...

A lorry weighbridge ?

Feedback sports, they make bike racks that are great, floor stands, XL version works well for ebikes and this scale. I don't have any relationship with them but I like to get good stuff that works well and lasts. The bike stand is amazing.

You stole my line!????

 

[flash]

My bathroom scales exactly match the ones at the airport so I figure they're accurate enough for my bike.

Downside is I know exactly how fat I am!!

Got these in a sale a few years ago when we started annoying the chef using her kitchen scales , it’s interesting to wiegh parts more than whole bikes , especially wheels and tyres . Always gives a racer the edge if they believe they have chosen the lighter faster parts ?
