Yes... 59 cm is approx 23 1/2" c-t-t.
No pump but the spec chromed steel Cristophe toe-clips.
I suspect, as others have privately e-mailed, spec weights were based on 56 cm. But that's not enough to account for 2 lbs. Maybe that titanium axle, give or take some for a imprecise scale and more for some brochure chicanery equals more or less what I got! I know... I still have the crank dustcaps on... that's what's doing it.
