weight really counts for shit riding round London.
That is of course to say that the relative difference between a bike built without weight in mind and one that is for London fixed riding is not particularly noticeable. Furthermore I think strength and survivability is worth far more then being 1kg lighter. I don't mean this just for OTPs, but for all fixed rigs designed for london street riding.
