I've never seen a smith that's uses a weightless setup...you can check by unracking it and seeing if it falls when you let go lol....if it falls it isnt weightless...The smiths I use have a bar weight of 45lbs (the counterweights only take off the weight of the mechanism that racks the bar)...hope this helps bro

I add the weight of the bar in just so I can compare it to my regular flat bench, shrugs, etc...
