I'm pretty sure there is still a [summary] tag on the checkout page which 
calculates the total weight of all items in the basket. You could use it 
like this:

[if type=explicit compare="[summary format='%s' total=1]"]
         (show shipping selector)
[else]
         (set shipmode directly)
[/else]
[/if]
