I started with a Giant Anthem X3 2010 on runout that was cheaper to buy than a frame-only Anthem X. Other than the frame, there is nothing left.
Current weight is sub 9.9kg (about 21.6lb) ready to ride:

For some races, I have swapped the tyres out for Conti Twister Supersonics which drops an amazing 346g of rotational weight compared to my everyday tyre setup. This brings the bike down to juSt on 9.5kg.
