All I use my gps for is to look at my MPH and to see how far i've gone so it kinda does seem like a little much and I donno if I want to be able to ride as quickly as i can, should i take off my headlight, lock, ram mount/gps, and maybe the little pack on back of my saddle? all that together prolly weights at least 3-5lbs i think.... maybe a lil more.
You're missing the point .... your LEGS & LUNGS determine how fast you go, not your saddle bag or light.
