But you forgot Columbus MAX Nivachrome for girls who demand the very best LOL not much weight difference form Sl and since my MAX frames (Bianchi of course) are fillet brazed there is no weight for the luggs.

for skinny little ragamuffin types a Mini Max frame was made breifly.

I agree with Aron though all things being equal in the frame material and geomentry the wheels and tires make a big difference. while the fancy Mavic Krysium wheels might be 'faster' for whatever reason I doubt they are much lighter than some of my box section tubular wheels which IMHO ride much better overall.
