so, if i spent what seems like the best part of £100 on ti bolts for all over my race singlespeed, what difference weight wise would it make? s'pose I just want to know how much a ti bolts weighs!
not alot
it'd make you feel a bit smug though
the ti bolts will roughly weigh 2/3rds of the steel.
(rough arse calculation) all depends on the grades really
about 150-200g on a normal bike
Better value for money than overpriced handlebars etc
hmmm, someone was advertising on here a while back weren't they?
£1 per gramme saved as a rough estimate
150-200g
wanders off to kitchen .....mmm a box of 9 cheapo cheweee bars weighs 198g
not a weight weanie - more of a too heavy to throw in a skip bike person but put Ti bolts on headset because fed up with looking at rust and couldn't find stainless steel ones easily
Alu bolts are half the weight of ti and are suitable for mechs, chainrings etc, cheaper too.
