I read the weight weenies thread and came up with around 150 grams. For an average rider, that's 0.18% weight savings. The weenies seem to forget that a bike goes nowhere without a rider.

FWIW, I got down to 60kg this year by dropping 900 grams. My bike weighs 8kg with force and zipp 303s.

Also consider BTLOS wheels. The WRL44 set only costs $767, plus about $150 freight. I bought some WARL29 when they offered free freight. You can ask for the rims to have no nipple access holes, so rim tape is not required.
