How much does your Miele Volta weigh? I have a top of the line special issue serial number 17 Miele that tips the scales at 22 pounds 11 ounces. For what it is worth, most top dog vintage road bicycle fall into this weight range unless the bicycle is fitted with tubulars.

Generally, I have found that the best Miele frame sets include Columbus SL and Campagnolo drops. Anything else is less that the top of the line offering from good old Jim. And once you get into the lesser bikes, you also get into lesser components which will add weight to the bicycle.

I offer this as an opinion only but I have honestly taken to weighing all of my bicycles these days. If you can, take a moment to actually get the weight of your bicycle. My guess is that it will tip the scales at 24 pounds plus a wee bit.
