Talking of frames, I got excited about a LeMond frame that is at Fitzroy Cycles, Carnegie, so I took my scales down to weigh it (what a geek), and this "modern" steel frame, made with 853 (57cm) is 1770g (no fork)!!!
This is only 90g lighter than my 1988 Raleigh 531c, and the Raleigh has lugs!!. I know 853 is more about stiffness and strength than weight, but still.

Lucky you didn't weigh my Merckx MX Leader.
