While watching a mini Chriss hoy documentary they said something about putting ice in the tubes for the weigh in which of course melts leaving the bike lighter. Do you think this is true or a joke?[/quote]
erm... the water?
i suspect it might weigh the same as the ice, but will have less volume so will reduce the air pressure.[/quote]

A drain hole would solve this easily.
I except that this is prob a joke however these reasons are ones which would stop this.
