we just finished replacing the seatposts (including the stoker suspension seatpost) and saddles on the tandem bike with a thomson elite seatpost (for captain) and an easton ec90 (carbon) seatpost (for stoker). then, we put on our saddles - wtb rocket v slt saddle with titanium rails (captain) and specialized oura rbx expert gel saddle (stoker).

by just changing out the seatposts and saddles, we were able to reduce the weight to 34.08 pounds (without pedals). next up is replacing the 62 gram bottle cages with 24 gram bottle cages, giving us another savings of 152 grams, or .34 pounds, bringing us down to 33.74 pounds (without pedals).

the spinergy wheels should be here within a couple weeks, and will hopefully save us at least 2-3 pounds over our current heavy wheels. we're excited to see how much weight savings we will get with that wheelset.
