    I chose to weigh mine in an approximation of "as I ride it," not "stripped down." I'm pretty much the opposite of a weight weenie, and basically don't give a rat's heinie about shaving off POUNDS, let alone ounces.

    Road bike (51cm Jamis Satellite Femme): 25 lbs.
    That includes accessories (computer, Power Grips, frame pump, and seat bag with spare tube, patch kit, multitool, levers). Bottle cages, too, of course, but not filled water bottles, because I don't feel like wasting or drinking two bottles of water right now!

    Commuter (17" Trek 7.2FX WSD): 32 lbs.
    That includes a Planet Bike EcoRack, two Wald folding baskets, one bottle cage, but again no water. I suppose I could have plunked my school bags into a basket for even more realism, but... it's Saturday evening. I'm not going near that stuff!

    Sitting in my living room looking pretty (?" Raleigh Grand Prix Mixte): 28 lbs.
    This one is actually pretty naked. It used to carry the rack and baskets before I got my Jamis and made my Trek into the dedicated commuter. I don't seem to have a niche for a semi ill-fitting vintage bike in my life, so I might be selling it. :/

    ETA: a couple forgotten accessories.
