Thanks for all the replies about mid-sized Rodeo weight. It seems that a mid-sized Rodeo (I can prolly get a 57; my 1999 Joe built custom is a 57 with a slight upslope). I expect that, with a dt shifter based 1X8 and and nice light 32 spoke wheels and a Flite (no gd Brookses) I could build up a sub 19 lb Roadeo.
And, hey! With an ENO I could have that 622 fixie fastie that I really, really need! Have you seen this? http://www.bikeradar.com/news/article/first-look-rivendell-roadeo-steel-club-racer-22939 A quote therefrom, worthy of the esoteric wizdum of BXNYC: "It has an integral chainstay bridge, and uses a slightly lighter seat tube, and the combo saves about 3 ounces, or about the same amount of weight you'd lose by spitting five times and cutting off a mullet."
