    Stage 1: lightweight clinchers at 1310g (supposed to be 1250g but not too bad)
    Need to get a replacement bitex shimano cassette body.
    Stans tubeless tape instead of rim tape 6g x 2 latex tubes 75g x 2 and veloflex record 150g x 2. Should be about 1770g for wheels.
    40g skewers

    Duraace 10 speed cassette
    Sram red 10 speed shifters, FD, RD and brakes
    Sisl2 with spidering 34-50 + stages

    170g speedplay Ti

    More weenie options:
