Factoring in the headset weight differences and the weight differences 
between a Nitto Technomic 427g vs. a Bontrager race lite 189g road stem 
(just pulling these out of thin air) you might see a half pound difference. 
But, there is something about the classic styling of a nice quill stem on a 
roadeo that really sets it off. Plus, if you were going to be a weight 
weenie, I don't think you would be choosing a steel frame anyway.
