    Window shopping at xcracer to take 1/2lb off each bike. Nice kit but – ouch! Who’d be a weight weeny…

    £1/gram is the going rate to join the WW club I’m afraid. Anything cheaper is a bargain.

    I’ll sell you my Merida 96 carbon team for £500 for each lb it’s lighter than your Yeti. 😀

    Oh if you think that’s bad, stay away from time trialling! The £££ per seconds ratio starts getting ridiculous pretty quickly 🙂

    Yes any sport where they sell you stuff based on “seconds per 40km” means the percentage improvements must be microscopic 😀

    I’ll see your “heavy” Merida and offer up my Large Scalpel which is up for sale 😉 Frame including hanger, headset, BB, seatclamp and DT Swiss XR Carbon shock…. 1621g 😯 Even better g/ £ ratio 😀
