A CAAD 12 frame is about 1050g with a 325g fork for comparison.
Maybe you should read more carefully
That's the weight of the steel one ...

And the one I am talking about is the aluminum one and it isn't out yet , only a few teases here and there

Can't believe no one's mentioned Frank the Welder. Builds a hella bike and may have laid down a bead or two for some of the brands in this tread.

He was mentioned in literally the third reply. And also he does the new Spookys and VNYLs.

Most of them, on the Paceline classifieds. My Lobster was $500 - only a little more than a CAAD.
