the weight carried on the bike, touring , plus things like the bottle bosses , holes in the center..
really does not require superlight steel tube, thin wall DB are somewhat less important ..

unless you are really keeping the weight down to an absolute minimum
sawing off toothbush handles kind of 'weighty' items .. obsession .
