Back from holiday in France, stinking cold all week, and comfort ate all the bread and cheese.
Need to lose the pounds, and also drop a bit more weight off the bike.
Tasks:
-Carbon saddle (currently got a plush Specialized power saddle for the turbo at the moment)
-Lighter bar tape (current one is well cushioned but pretty heavy) Any recommendations?
-Remove shifter mechanism from left Sram red shifter, or change to a spare S900 shifter.
-Trim steerer & slam
-Lighter seatpost clamp - sadly aerozine don't seem to do a 30.9mm version.
-Hunt for a smaller Hollogram ring(40 or 42t), so I can maybe go for a smaller 11-25 cassette block.
-Eat Salmon, chicken, eggs, lentils, broccoli. repeat
Any other ideas that won't blow the budget?
