Will be 2.5kg on top of everything you listed since the frame weighs 2.5kg.

Was hoping someone had the figure without me stripping everything to bits to find it's weight

OK, then you should have asked the weight of the Insp case...

I could be wrong since I I didn't take the case when bought the Insp, it is probably in the 4-kg range...

So subtract around 2kg from your kit if all you are planning to swap out is the case.

Also don't forget that you won't be travelling with the tanks either, if your destination has them.

The original Inspo yellow & black shell (the ABS version) weighs 7lb 14oz (about 3.5kg). Ok, these measurements were taken using a set of kitchen scales so may not be accurate to the nearest ounce (gram), but it's a figure you can work with for your calculations.

Cheers

Phi / Steven,
I received the Travel Frame yesterday. Many thanks for the speedy delivery.
Build quality looks excellent. Now I just have to assemble and try the unit.

Many Thanks

Tommy

Keep up the good work....

Hello Rob,

i read your buildup article and there you mentioned that you did not use any backplate. How you fixed the AP Wing/harness on the frame without a plate

Is there a way to go without on the travelframe??

Cheers
Toni
