Hi There,

Sorry for all the questions. I'm now in a situation where this upgrading can get very expensive and I might be better saving the money and buying a better bike in years time or something.

Now on the other hand I would quite like the project of reducing the weight on my bike. I just don’t want to end up spending all my money on it, which can easily be done. I have made a spreadsheet with the weights of my current components and the components I am looking at buying. (I have attached the file) Now from the spreadsheet I have worked out I can loose a huge amount of weight from my wheel set and tires. Now my bike weighs 32lbs what’s a realistic weight to loose from this bike with a small to medium size budget about £500, $900.

Lastly the budget is not including money for new forks. I already have that saved as my Axel’s are crap.

Many Thanks for all the replies so far

Danny
