weight reduction the easy way

[el-saturn]

some of us on this forum were trained to look for lighter solutions for an overweight (but highly stressed) component: it could have been holes, gauge, titanium,cfk whatever --------------------- the least headache causing version is using brand rims 4,5" they weigh 800gramms less per corner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i?ll show you flks my restored ones in a couple of weeks : 3200 gramms for a simple switch - how much are a) minilites ally and b) minlite mag????? does anyone know? cheers sandy

For most of us the easiest way to reduce weight is to diet

My minilite alum alloy weighed pretty much the same as the steel Elan rims, I think at 15 lbs, I will have to check my notes.
There are better cost vs wt savings, but I wanted round rims

jason - i DO have to agree: i COULD loose 30lb if i?d quit: wine, rib-eye, bacon?n?eggs and all of the italian kitchen which i do professionally (johnson.ch) and privately and to keep me busy ................ other than 36/4982 sandy
