How much does your gravel bike weigh? (why are they so heavy?)

[JHeiro]

Can you aprox. estimate (by the feel or so) how many watts difference is there climbing these two bikes up a hill(both with same wheels/tires)?
Thx

Both bikes have their specific niches, and haven't really done an apples to apples comparison. Based on my experience, gravel bike weight doesn't really make that much of a difference when climbing. The Crux is certainly lighter and snappier, and accelerates off corners faster. Diverge STR however has an edge on uneven surfaces, as the suspension reduces bouncing on the saddle, and helps maintain traction and a smooth pedal stroke. I actually believe that I'm faster on the Diverge on most climbs, at least when it's technical. On a road climb the Crux would definitely be a couple of watts faster.
