Lightest Steel Frame?

[doctor-bond]

Hi @doctor-bond, I don't suppose you mean this one: https://weightweenies.starbike.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=144985

Nope, this one: MXL
(And if you change the fork on one of those, it’s no longer an MXL)

@D N Stone would love to see pictures of it if you have

Page 5. It’s lush.

I love this thread. Honest steel bike *frame* weights are hard to come by.

With paint my large cielo road racer disc is 1795g. One of the stiffest bikes I've ever ridden. Columbus Life.

Another one of my Raleigh SBDU 753's in a size 59cm C-T. This one has longer chain stays and long Campagnolo dropouts with mudguard eyes weighing in at 1745g with Campagnolo Super Record headset cups and dropout adjusters so under 1700g.. not bad for a big one

I do wonder how accurate some of these weighing methods are.

Titanium Serotta’s are meant to be really light. Anyone has weighted one?

For the record, I’m happy to be able to add a Dave Lloyd 57cm in 753 1770g with steel headset cups; fork, also 753: 712g.
