Just standing on the side of the trail Dave and I were able to point to several pounds of extra weight on his bike - 400 gram tires, heavy tubes, boat anchor seatpost and bottom bracket, etc. Cranks are just part of that, that's all.

He is a thin, athletic guy and will benefit from a lighter bike.

His old cranks are converted road cranks anyway and worth upgrading for looks alone.
