the berd's are around 2.5g per spoke; good bit of savings there. ti is around 4g (2.0mm straight); not a huge savings over a fancy steel spoke like a cx ray, but the ti dye colors has lured me on more that one occasion. can still buy them, but they're a bit finicky (and expensive).
but yeah, given these rims are pretty similar in weight to a stans mk4 (which relatively light me can't kill), it'd be interesting to see how light one could build a "reasonably" durable (ie, no lifetime warranty) trailbike rim with current composite tech.
