Weight comparisons generally are for a bare bones bike without any accessories and no pedals. (FWIW, wheel weights are similarly measured - no rim tape or skewers).

Weigh your bike that way and you can compare. Generally speaking 15lbs being a light bike has been the benchmark for many years. Depending what is on your bike when you weigh it, you could be pretty close to that magic number. If, just as a game to play, you want to get lower weight, an easy way to get a pound or so off is strictly ties and tubes.
