My partner has an early-80s Univega mixte, probably made by Miyata. Down tube sounds pretty thick, but butted.

With lots of cheap heavyweight parts (steel threaded/threadless stem adaptor and stamped-steel chainrings, for example) it comes in at almost exactly 30 pounds inclusive of kickstand, rack, lights, and plastic fenders. That's with 2x7 drivetrain.
