dann2707 Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) Change that bottom bracket! Swapped mine recently to a try all not sure what model but its much much lighter. SAved about 100g I think Also what inner tubes are you running? I changed mine other day from a kenda heavy duty mother f**ker to a standard one and saved another 240g. never thought itd make such a difference. Could slick your rear tyre too if you're feeling adventurous. Come ride Leeds sunday, get Prattley involved if he's free. you said you wanted to ride it...

Not sure what inner tubes they are i think they are standard onza ones. I'm up for a ride Sunday like, if i can borrow some maggie pads from somewhere cause i've broken my Echo TR disc brake, some I'm having to borrow a maggie off one of my mates and it has black pads in it, and i'd like to keep my spine intact.

dann2707 Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 Also your pedals could be changed to lighter ones. Wellgo MG1's are proper light for platforms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harmertrials Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) I just got a ti bb for mine, made a big difference. Also recommend some try all cranks. Deffo change the pedals too. Get a try all sticky light on the rear, slick it. Monty lightweight tubes made a massive difference to mine too. The drivetrain and wheels is the easiest place to lose grams.
