The "exact" weight is impossible to know, because it would require a perfect measurement, which is impossible to make. You need a "precise" weight, how precise do you need it? -- Jim_Rob TTFN- JR In theory, there is no difference between Theory and Practice.

Oh my god. Is this what you do in your free time? Wait for a sixteen year old kid to make a tiny, irrelevant mistake on a unicycling forum just so you can correct him?

I weighed my Qu-Ax trials the same way, and it came out about the same, 14lbs. It would take a more precise scale to see the weight difference between Torker DX or Qu-Ax trials. -- forrestunifreak 'My gallery' (http://tinyurl.com/bbf9x) www.seattlebikesupply.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ forrestunifreak's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/6828 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/46166 |

Uni Weights...
yeah i think you would need an actual scale that is built to weigh bikes/unicycles, bathroom scales would be set differently i reckon -- trials2k Live and Die on a uni ** ------------------------------------------------------------------------ trials2k's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11354 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/46166 |

I'm guessing it's a scientific thing. In order to 'properly' answer the query, it's neccesary to know what he wants it for. If it's for postage, the closest pound would probably be fine. If he needs to use the unis as counterweights in some elaborate clock, it'll probably won't.

But I couldn't help wondering why 'precise' would me a more relative term than 'exact', as you seem to imply. In the technical world, precise is a relative term requiring qualification, so one can speak of how precise a measurement is (+/-10% etc.) Exact is an absolute term, which comes to us from mathematics. One can have an exact solution to an equation, but it is not possible to make an exact measurement. -- Jim_Rob TTFN- JR In theory, there is no difference between Theory and Practice.
