A 30+ size Masterpiece isn't really light it is around 190g.
I don't know how long you need it to be, but standrard lenght of 350mm is around 190g.

Your current Easton is lighter (should be)

Mono minis are tunable to be lighter than marta SL's and thier performance is much better.

Would save you a big wad of money too.

Ok, didn't know that Robin.

But have to agree with you, a Masterpiece looks really nice on that frame.

The 30.9 is heavier then 158g.
the 30.9 is 168g. and 182 for the 400mm version

you can buy them streight from Extralite themselfs.
but you have to pay with Creditcard.

Super nice :-)

why not change the Easton seatpost for a New Ultimate 27,2x350 + shim - should be about 127 grams for the seatpost and 20 grams for the shim (guess)?

You have a fantastic looking bike!
