Yes, I can do the bathroom scale method at home one of these days, but I will try to take it down to the bike shop this weekend for a more accurate weigh-in. I would have to take all of my commuting gear off of the bike first though.

I agree, it would look more retro with a level top tube, but the reason I always buy sloping tube bikes is because of what happened to a friend of mine - severe testicular injury.
A matter of personal preference more than anything.
