My example would be my Brooklyn Machine Work Gangsta, it's no light bike with it's 1000g fork, but it did not slow me down one iota.
I have Mavic Open Pro with normal hubs (rear condor track and front road), reasonably light with a small 44t chainring, skinny saddle and drop bar, the bike feel heavy to pick it up, but doesn't feel heavy at all when riding.
