I’d treat these numbers as relative and not dead-accurate.

SC system 39lbs
21 lbs - 20mm rotors
17 lbs- ATE M steel calipers
1 lb - pads

Stop tech level 2: 34 lbs
21 lbs - 28 mm rotors and hats
11 lbs - aluminum calipers and adapter brackets
2 lbs - pads

The assembled rotor uses both steel and aluminum efficiently verse the all steel 20mm rotors

Note the Carrera front brakes are even heavier with the wide-M calipers and 24mm rotors.

All aluminum calipers are significantly lighter than stock steel calipers.
Is that per side?
