The latest iteration that is the subject of the group buy has a steel main bar and larger aluminum side bars, so it's definitely heavier, but still under three pounds. In my book that would count as insignificant.

Thanks Kirk (and Franco) - insignificant is certainly a fair answer. I was just trying to get a feel for whether there's any weight impact or not.
