Quite a few mid-70s weight weenie bits on my Speedwell. The Suntour Cyclone derailleurs are very lightweight. (Another WW option is the Huret Duopar with titanium bits.) The Weyless pedals were about the lightest available. The stem is on the heavy side, but the 3ttt Superleggera bars were some of the lightest around. Regina hollow-pin superleggera chain. Alloy railed Ideale saddle. Etc.:
Eventually, I will build some wheels around these Hi-E hubs, and ad an alloy freewheel and titanium BB when the budget allows:
