My point, which I thought was pretty obvious, is that pedals designed to work with 3-hole cleats aren't necessarily lighter than pedals designed to work with 2-hole cleats. There are quite a few heavy 3-hole/road pedals out there and, correspondingly, there are quite a few 2-hole/MTB pedals that are relatively light.

I, personally, can't tell the difference between my 370g M520 SPDs and the 270g Crank Brothers pedals they replaced so I'd suggest the OP not focus on weight as a deciding factor when selecting a clipless pedal system.
