And I have to agree - I don't think this is targeted at ProTour riders right now so who cares about weight. Once safe frame designs with these ubber light weights are continually developed by lots of companies and proven in the real world, eventually the UCI weight limit will be lowered.
It's interesting that you chose doctors as the group of individuals with the purchasing power to take home this bike. Not that they don't.....but I would have gone more along the lines of the investment banker/business type. Substantially more money in business than health care these days.
