In each Big Four category there are significantly lighter alternatives that cut the weight often in half or more:

my Tarptent weighs 20 oz instead of my old 64 oz tent. Easier setup, more room with excellent rain and bug protection.

my down quilt weighs 20 oz instead of 48 oz down sleeping bag for the same temperature rating and it is more compact.

my thermarest pad weighs 12oz instead of 32oz for the old one.

my cooking equipment weighs 16oz instead of the old 32 to 48 oz. An alcohol stove @ 1 oz instead of an MSR gas stove at 18oz helps a lot.

The new weight total is 68 oz instead of the old 192 oz total. Shaving ounces does make a difference in my riding experience without causing hardship. I am still warm, dry, comfortable and well fed and hydrated. Less is more as the cliche goes.
