Nope. Pass on the Mythbusters, because you quit way too soon.

I'm not the only one who's noted that Mavic Open Pros hit the streets heavier than their listed weight, and that CXP33s hit the streets at less than their listed weight.
And there are no weight listings on Weight Weenies for Mavic Open Pros later than 2004. Gee, you'd think someone would weigh 'em, huh? Especially given that thread I just linked.
And the Wayback Machine doesn't list any Weight Weenies pages later than Aug 2008:
