Do you mind taking a look at the tubing sticker, just under the saddle, the one that says "012" on it? I'm trying to re-confirm in my own mind whether that is a an Ishiwata tube set, or if I'm remembering it wrong. What's the full text on that sticker?

Anyway, its the same tube set on my Prestige up above in post 115, and it weighs about 25 lbs as currently built, so, not too heavy. The component set on your bike is pretty heavy, as non-fixie points out.
