The session 9 in white for 2023 is 39lb, I was surprised as the parts all seemed fairly light with the exception of the wheels (2080 grams).

Not sure you could get it down to anything like 36lb, this kinda put me off buying one. I’d be using it for bike parks and dh tracks that I wouldn’t want to wreck my enduro on, but I won’t be racing.

Should I be bothered about the weight of this bike?

In my opinion, weight does not hurt DH bikes. To me, the weight makes the bike more stable and planted. I have the 22 Trek Session and wouldn't think twice about getting another. I have tested, Spesh Demo, Supreme, Norco Range, Dreadnought. I never think about the Treks weight, I've added Cushcore, DH rear tire and coil shock.

Just my 2 cents... hope that helps!
