Impressively light! Though also was over compensated in the excess build time, fussy lacing and bending yada comparative to the conventional race wheels of the times. Still got to give credit for what he accomplished.

For grins the other day weighed a. 700c tubular Nisi Sludi 290 Moncalier laced 32 spoke 3 cross using 'non butted GALVANIZED' spokes, brass nips, Galli competition hub (not the Maillard produced), 652 gram total (but less skewer). Could go lighter with other spokes but its a routine quick and easy build. Reliable too.
