My bike weighs too much

Spend £100 on bike and then ride it more to gain leg strength

without sounding like im taking the piss, save the 100 and loose 2 kg by eating right and exercising. that would prob make more difference to your riding than sticking on some go faster inner tubes or carbon bottle cage

Someone always posts something like this! Loosing weight from a bike is almost a sub hobby in itself, its not always about performance IME.

Forgot, I changed the tyre on the back for a rajin race due to the weather and fitted an avid 1.9sl v brake and matching lever.

Should go far with some choice purchases, that chainset and those pedals will be weighty too.

When somebody is moaning about a bike weighing 22-23lbs, probably fair comment - at just shy of 30lbs, with a TI frame (note: I've no idea how much this particular TI frame weighs) it's probably fair comment that the build may benefit from a diet, too...
