For comparison, we have the Cobra Wing @ 228gm (including cork tape wrap) + 3T ARX II Team stem[/URL] @ 15cm/17degrees weighing 160gm = 388gm total weight, $315 total cost including tape. The Team stem came with a red stripe which I did a hack job painting out using some touchup I had on hand. The stem is attached to seatpost using a black Cane Creek shim.



Prefer the looks of yours though.
