Personally, the ‘better wheels and supple tires’ has always been my favorite upgrade = tubular wheels/tires. Rotating weight is where gains are most notable. How much do your cycling shoes weigh? Stiff soles help too.
Light is nice, but waaay over emphasized for non-competitive cyclists with upright riding positions. Helping the world economy by being a consumer is Good. Thanks.
Yep, I'll give you feedback after using it for a while.
100% agree: Rotating weight saving is a lot more notable... but I already did it, and now the only heavy part of all the bike is that fork with that "massive" weight of 1635grams.
