Also, I'm sure you can shave of half-a-pound by putting that cutting wheel to work on the kickstand mounting plate, too. A little white Rustoleum touch-up when you're done, and Bob's yer uncle.

I liked doing it so much that I think I'm going to go into business cutting out BB pantographs and charge only $5000/hr for labor.
VERY rough still (looks like poo) but hey it's actually got a hole there now! I'm just glad I didn't have a massive 'boo boo' with the drilling or grinding. Will do more cleanup today, and balance my time by how much the screeching of the files drives the family nuts. This bike is good at that.
