Rods that are under 100 Grams

What are some rods that are under 100grams?
I know there are several jdm rods that are around the 80 gram mark and the Nitro Vapor is around there too.

Cheers,

I'm not 100%, but still pretty certain my Daiwa Infeet 6'8" is under 100g. Can't find any specs in regards to weight on it. But I cast and retrieve for 8 hours strait regularly with a 2000 sized reel on it without any signs of fatigue.

Loomis SR842-2 IMX and GLX are under 100g. One of the main reasons they are my favourite rods.

100 grams does seem light, but that's over 3 oz. Designed and built with light weight in mind, some rods can easily come in at 1.5 oz or less. That's around the 50g mark.
