I dont think most CCR offers significant weight saving over OC. My unit riged and ready to go is 45kg in standard trim.
A KISS or a EVO would be a good choice as i think they are much lighter. A Sport kiss even more so. But they all need more lead than OC

Hmmm you're sure? I can dive the SK with alu case with 1kg of lead (Using 300bar steel 3l) when wearing 7mm wetsuit. My buddy can dive it with 235bar 3l and SS case without any lead at all using his 400gr undersuit and wetsuit. (Yes I am not the slimest man in the pond
) So yes there's a lot to be gained. Is it enough? Well that's a different matter... But based on OC comparison I lost 4 kg of lead. That and the lighter configuration itself makes this a relatively comfy config.
