Re:
There is no harm in swapping out stuff that is or, can be heavy.
Say tyres, cranks, saddle... but a bike can be too light y'know. In a way that's hard to explain, the alu and ti can punish your ass, wrists etc...
I suppose we all have parameters and zones that 'do it' for us.
I once did the extreme rally car strip out thing thing but the bike lost soul.
My light and precious bike below, the weight? Dunno. Nice and light but has a great balance and stability. 1995 team. Even sporting a USE shockpost.
