ill order the same bars from a reputable parts source and see what happens. Also i'll take a pic of the bars on the scale to show everyone the weight and reveal the source I bought them from so others don't make the same mistake.

The stem and seat post I got from ritchey weighed out within a few grams as advertised...Just quite a bit off for the bars...was a disappointment...wanted a lighter bar..i figured if its within 5 to10 grams I wouldn't be shocked..but over 50grams..wow.

Not sure if that is the norm or not but anything more than 10grams higher just seems to be BS on a claim. Ive recorded items that were dead on and some lower and some higher than claims...but wow on a 50 plus gram difference...They may be cheap china fakes,,i don't know...I did get them off ebay so you never know...but they will be replaced with something else down the road.
