And the fork is correct and original, by the way, in reply to an earlier poster's musings. You have to love the no-compromise criterium geometry, with that barely visible fork rake.
Well, the seller emailed me back after I told him the proper weigh to bathroom scale a bike (rider+bike - rider = bike weight) and it came back at a more realistic 22 lbs and change.
Before, he tried to balance the bike on the scale and was holding it...hence the 16+ lbs!
