I dunno if its worth using it as it could not tolerate a .2mm difference. I'll have to measure it using a decent calipers. Perhaps i could "borrow" a micrometer from the lab

I however, have a decent scales. The 62cm frame + fork weighed in at 6.86 of your medieval pounds. That sounds light enough to me but I'm not too experienced in C&V bikes.

Its not an ultra high end frame, I'm guessing. 600 groupset with a light enough frame sounds like a decent mid end frame to me. Its worth noting that the wheels are 700c sized, mavic rims with a 600 hubs.
