you're also dragging all those 27 gears around DaveS, so do allow for a real SS bike to be significantly lighter. I went thru exactly the same process last year and was pleasantly surprised how 'easy' the hills were. You simply have to attack them with a 'nowhere to hide' approach. Wish I'd been braver and gone fixed sooner too....its much more fun.
