I have some of these that are 80mm and they were around 104. So a little heavier, but I like them. Very stiff for the weight.
For certain parts stiffer is more important than lighter.

Without paint, it could be close to 103g. With paint it's more like 110g.

Mine is 116gr (wet black, standard bolts - no ti upgrade), 110mm length. I use a 700mm enve bar and it feels stiffer than the ritchey wcs it replaced.

My 90 mm matt black stem weighs 103 g. Feels quite stiff, too.
