The saddle's actually an Ideale 80, but I think the rails are made of some lighter steel, because in addition to being un-chromed, I was amazed when I bought another Ideale 80 and it felt much heavier in the hand than this one. The post is pretty light too - it's an American Classic. The first gen Dura Ace cranks with Zeus pedals also turned out to be lighter than pretty much every other option I tried. The wheelset, too was surprisingly light, I love Rigida AL1320 rims. The Suntour VGT Luxe is NOT, however, a lightweight. I put it on because for whatever reason it is shifting better than the Superbe Pro I was initially going with.
