Weight
Stem - 230.5 Grams. Heavy, but it looks soo good! I can't wait to make an aluminum version.
Frame - 3.12 lbs. Not the lightest I could do, but this is an OS frame and is quite stiff.
Bike - 18.05 lbs. It's not a race bike. It rides great, looks great, and I love it. A lighter stem would really help it. The clunky commuting pedals really weigh it down as well.
