Which Wheel is Lighter?

Which of the standard 16" wheels is lighter, the S-Winder or the Bridge-spoke? I like the looks of the Bridge-spoke better, but if it is significantly heavier I might go for the S-winder. Anyone here weighed them yet?

Excellent info. Thanks. Looks like the S-winder is 3.5 pounds lighter per wheel - that's pretty substantial. Looks like the S-winder wins - I'm a function over form type of guy.
