im replacing my steel crankset, steel wheels, and steel seatpost for lighter, aluminum alloy ones.

i was wondering, im running 70 gear inches right now and its tough sometimes around here. i was thinking of switching to 65.

my question is, if you have a heavier bike, does it feel like yr pushing more gear inches?

if i put on all the alloy parts, will the 70 gi be easier to push around? very curious about this.
