Calling Raleigh 20 weight weenies

So, I've stripped down and removed stuff, swapped some parts here and there, but basically I don't care what my Raleigh 20 weighs since it's a fun ride around town.

But today I was pushing it up the stairs and gawd, it felt heavy. I put it on the scale----31.4 pounds!! Is it just the S-A hub that does it?

What have you all you guys with the modded out frames managed to get your 20 down to? I know a weight weenie Twenty rider is an oxymoron, but I can't help but be curious....
