That's pretty good. What steel is it made of?

I have a bathroom scale weight of 23.5lbs for the SLT, that's with an 1.8kg wheelset, pedals, and bottle cages. That frame is double butted CrMo on the top tube and down tube only though, I'm pretty sure everything else is straight gauge hi-ten. I'd be surprised if that frame was under 5 lbs, the fork probably adds another 2 or so.
