Exact 97 with nivachrome tubing. 1630g in size L. Only 100g heavier than the Exact titanium.

O, I loved those. My brother has an Exact Ti from 1998.

My RC200 weighed 10.5kg when I last weighed it. Since then, it’s had some slightly lighter rims, swapped a fatso front Hope hub for a regular, and a rear XT hub for a Hope. Oh, and a lighter (but not XTR ) cassette. Oh, and some smaller and snazzier X-Lite bar ends. So, maybe 10.2kg now?

That’s all with fairly standard kit on. Nothing too fancy and certainly no Drillium (not when I weigh nearly 85kg these days!). Would be interesting to know just how light you can get an RC200 with some properly trick bits.
