You gonna eat that?
So, is it safe to assume that my hi ten Schwinn Cutter is not appropriate fodder for this thread?

I have my TET right around 17.25 lbs. Not bad for steel (lighter than my FTP), but I could definitely get a bit lighter if I had lower profile Kinlins and some weight weenie bars.

. . . I can understand a light bike, and why someone might want to make it light... But how is what I was confused about in the first place.
But I have a good amount of lightweight stuff, yet my bikes never reach THAT low... 13 and a half just seems unbelievable
