All weight is in pounds...

F'Lite 31" Case		11.0
Front and rear racks	 2.6
Pedals			 1.0
Seat post and saddle	 2.6
Front wheel and tire	 2.2
Stem			 1.8
Kick stand		 0.4
Bike			20.2
Front panniers 		 3.4
Rear panniers 		 3.4
Bag of screws		 0.4
Bike Friday wrench 	 0.1
Tools, pump, lights	 1.2

My total		50.3
Scale total		51.8

Notes:
* I removed all the webbing/straps from the case.
* All objects that had packaging material include that in the weight.
* Rear rack is the Bike Friday foldy rack.

I've removed one of the panniers which brought the weight to 50lb even.

How much does the trailer plus wheels weigh? It sounds like I either fly
with racks and panniers or with the trailer.
