Yeah I had no intention of starting the "you can save weight here" discussion, I just wanted to know if you had a rough idea of that system. I know the one that was posted on 221's site was 100+ lbs. but that was for a client (non FRC). It's always nice to compare weights of different configurations to see what could be more beneficial. But seriously, it looks really nice thus far.
