Does any one know how much they Actually weight. last i heard it was 7ish pounds, That leads me to believe they have got to be something less than 4130. I admit they look nice but old Lugged 4130 Cromo frames can be had for 0-50$ Sanded and sprayed will look nearly as nice for potentially as little as 20$

If they weighted Something reasonable. and where 170$ i would be all over one
I think they hired a glamor shots photographer for this set of frames.

If a lugged 61 cm frame weighs 6.9 pounds, (Sparton Track)
and a welded 56 cm frame weighs 6.3 pounds, (Surly Steamroller)
then I would conclude that they have similar tubing.

That being said I will be getting a kilo TT frameset.
