(posted in 2008) "*...Nemo isn't very light. Depending on the size of the frame, and the dimensions of the tubes, it could be barely any lighter than Reynolds 531. Also, Nemo is kinda old, and I don't think Columbus make it any more, but I'm sure there are still some tube-sets floating around. Even in its day, it was heavier than Foco and Ultrafoco. My 57.5cm tigged Cervelo Ultrafoco is
1680g, which is only 185g lighter than my lugged 1988 Raleigh.
As someone else said, the current light Columbus steels are Spirit and Life, with Zona being a bit cheaper and heavier, but probably stronger...*"
Columbus Nemo, used by Look as well.
I was trying to find the tubing for the LOOK KG253 last week.
Mdcc_Tester helped me with that.
