I'd like to see someone chime in on the relevance of weight when combined with the rider, a theory I've thought made pretty good sense.

For example, I'm 205lbs riding a 25lb bike, so I'm pushing 230lbs? If I rode my 22lb bike I'm pushing only 3lbs less, equal to a reduction of only 1.3% in total weight? I'm not sure I can feel 1.3%, is this theory, which most of you I'm sure have heard, just BS? In the long run I guess we all choose lighter when we have the choice.
