I have a bathroom scale that measures to the tenth of a pound. That's more than accurate enough for my purposes because I don't really know that my purposes are.
You're much more finicky than I am. I simply pick it up and decide if it feel light enough or not. The last time I weighed a bike was over 40 years ago, when top end bikes were close to 21#s and we were all struggling to break the 20# barrier.
