Of course, have done so already. My Cannondale six13 is 5.9 kg but still with 2x shifters, so could loose another 100 g, costing nothing. It cost me around 800£ including sell off of the replaced parts. It has no bartape(-25g), no hoods(-30g), Nokon wires, 19mm tubs Toyo Jet(167g), no padding saddle(116g), Elita One seatpost(107g), July 21F rimbrakes(242g), Lifeline Ti QR all of them are reasonably priced, so you can build a light bike, without going crazy with expensive parts.

My question is do they weigh their cloths and their own weight? I always see people obsessing over grams in a cassette and wonder if they measure the grams of food they are eating before riding. Or even more heavy the fluids they intake. As someone who is overweight I don’t obsess about my bike’s weight, granted I don’t go out of my way to make it heavy. Anyway, fun video!!!

I upgraded it with a factory Alabarda integrated cockpit, bike weighs 19.2 pounds without pedals or cages. Its heavy. Im an amateur cyclist, less then 2 years (maybe 1 year of consistent riding). I do not and will not be racing, just ride for hobby. Whats your guys opinion on this? Is it good that my first years riding will be on a heavy bike as this will build more strength and endurance? Spend $$$$ to drop another pound or two? Switch to an ultegra mechanical or Di2 Groupo to save over a pound? I love it, its plenty stiff, and I would hope its aero based off its looks.

I’m enjoying the bike so far kzitem.infoUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA My only real complaints are the brakes and the pedals. I feel like a bike designed for bigger people should have much larger pedals and more heavy duty brakes. I’ve only gotten two really good rides out of it, minimal downhill action, and the brakes feel like they’re already going out. A larger person has more momentum, so I think this wasn’t thought through very well. Also, I wear size 13-14 wide shoes. My feet cramp up on these pedals that are clearly made for smaller feet. Since I’m not a pro rider (and I don’t think many are who purchase this bike) I don’t think that the straps on the pedal are necessary at all. None of this takes away from the enjoyment I get from riding, however. I’ll just head to a bike shop to improve on a few things.
