I had a feeling it was Billato just from the build quality, the panto and the style - but came across this when I did some research:

As far as weight - I think it's hard to tell because that Mavic group is CHUNKY! It looks OS and stiff to me - which I like. On the down side, it has a dent in the driveside seatstay and the little tab inside the seatstay seems to have snapped off. I've never known what those were for.

I'm debating keeping the Lemond, but the Merckx and Litespeed are not destined to stay with me long.
