Crank weights

Anyone know if the Sugino VP 130 is a heavy crankset?

I have a 170mm set (for triple) that weighs 571g without rings. You can draw your own conclusions from that.

Thanks. I found a weight on velobase of 520g and was doubting it. The shimano dura ace track crankset is 505g without chainrings. That Sugino is surprisingly light!
