For what it's worth, we've gone the 80/20 route. While it's great for prototyping and testing, we've found it's far too heavy for competition use. We've since switched to welded thin-wall steel tubing and it seems to work quite well.
WOW!
4 Cims is 10 Lbs.
4 6" Mecanums is 6.2 lbs.
4 gearboxes is anywhere from 6-10 lbs.
Making your frame only
12.8 lbs. max

Our frame is pretty bare essentials out of aluminium and its at 18lbs.
