If i had your bike, what I would be asking myself: ‘is it worth the cost to obtain this goal, and how much will it really help my performance, or am I just doing this to make the bike lighter on paper?’ And as a subsequent question: ‘could I make up the difference in weight by working on my performance and fitness?’
