Even a light steel frame is only a couple of pounds lighter....most people wouldn't even notice a 2 pound difference on an overall build when actually riding it. People get far too hung up on light weight. It's how the bike rides that is important...My brooklyn frame weighs about 6 pounds and i prefer riding that around London to riding my old Storck which weighed a fraction of the amount.
