I'd guestimate that with her suit, Tali weighs like 140-170 lbs (I'm assuming 20lbs minimum for the suit, though very likely more). Seeing as Shep's handled that 86lbs sniper rifle with one arm, he should have zero problem at all. 
That's a reasonable guess. She's reasonably tall (at least compared to Shep), but a fair amount of her is quite thin. Aside from the hip region, of course.
170 too much. Suit weighs likely 15-20 pounds, Tali likely between 110-130.
Well, we have no idea of knowing really. I'd guess the suit is pretty heavy though, for a few factors:
- It appears to be made of a reasonably heavy material, which of course makes sense
- The fabric that adorns the suit is also pretty thick.
- Her helmet would probably be relatively heavy. All metal and probably has multiple life support systems.
- Life support systems on the suit. The suits are super advanced and perform a ton of functions, all that stuff requires some form of machinery.
- Metal parts. Her "boots" for example, are all metal, going up nearly to her knees.
- Tons of belts and straps and pockets everywhere. That's just more material to add more weight.
There's no way all that stuff would weigh less than 20lbs--I'd say 30lbs would be the minimum, going up to maybe 50-60ish.
Then she must be aching to get that suit off. If she's still here, ask her. Tali? How much does your suit weigh?
Tali also moves with ease, Sergio. This is the future, afterall, all that equipment doesn't weigh nearly as much as you would think. The suit probably enhances her strength with mass effect fields, so it's a pretty blurry area of discussion.
Besides the suit, Tali is tall just like everyone else, probably 5'9, that distributes the weight somewhat, so I say without her suit Tali is 120. Agreed?
And the suit could weigh 20 pounds it could weigh 60. Either way, she has to haul around extra weight. Shepard's suit probably weighs 100 pounds, so obviously it doesn't affect their agility that much. And considering how fast Tali moves, I'll bet she could throw a mean kick or punch.
Or pounce
