Hey Anthony, the weight of the BAKFlip MX4 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK78AV that you referenced is 71 lbs. Basically all of the retractable and hard tonneaus are going to weight more since there is a lot of components involved. I'm actually impressed you could feel 50 lbs in the bed of your truck. Most of the time it takes at least a couple hundred lbs back there to notice anything.
To get something lighter you'd need the Access LiteRider part # A92FA which is a roll up that is 31 lbs.
