Raam, never argue with a weightweenie. He'll drag to down to his level and beat you with experience.

I'm actually thinking which bottle cages would get me under 7kg.

Why don't you change the saddle that weighs two metric tons? Cut the excess steerer and remove the stickers from the wheels (you 'll be surprised).

Yeah, I've been meaning to cut that down. Saddle is one of the more comfortable that I've had so gonna hang on to it for a bit.

Maybe carbon bars and stem and some lighter cages are next.

There should be a "no thanks" button.

Although I'd say I'd have thought they were cool when I was 12.

Do they light up when you walk too?

No, I wish they would though. That'd be totally awesome. Oh sorry, we're adults now. I'll have mine in black or white. No, no, black. Then I can claim sensibility superiority because I don't need to wash them. Yes! Adulthood rocks. It's soooo exciting.

Clubmate borrowed a pair of lightweights to fit to his new S-Works Tarmac for Stage 2 of Rás Donegal at the weekend, a bike that wouldn't have looked out of place on one of those 'exotic bikes' threads on weight weenies!

Fantastic looking bike.

You made one critical flaw when taking the picture though; your valves aren't at 12 o'clock. So close though, crank arms at 3 and 9 and bidons out of the cages.

WTF is wrong with me I'm actually looking more at the bike and see the young lady in the foreground as a distraction.....

Since your "carbon" frame is actually "carbon fibre reinforced plastic" I wouldn't worry about it.
