Hmm, I don't have a scale. Observations from the real world on last week's group ride: I didn't have to ride around standing water from recent rainfall to avoid striping my back, didn't have to ride around gravel on the roadway in places where streets had been torn up but not yet repaved, I was not unnerved by uneven road surfaces descending and I stopped to provide aid with my full-size frame pump to a rider on a CF super light who had a flat to a 23c tire and flubbed his CO2 thingy and had no other way to air up the new tube. As we rode back to the tail of the group I enjoyed my second bottle of water on the subsequent climb, CF guy stopped at a trash can along the river path and discarded both the tube and the empty gas bulbs. "Weighing me down". Yeah.
I'll weigh my Rambouillet sometime and it'll be a number. I tend to think of it as bringing enough bike when the peripherals draw weight consternation from the obsessive camp.
