Dropping bike weight is a "one and done" act, and the weight loss is permanent. It won't go up, even if you binge shop on Amazon.
Body weight is an ongoing process that never ends. And some of us are very low body fat types and can't afford to lose what we have.
My new wheelset was delivered yesterday, 1260 grams as advertised. But the skewers (not included in the 1260 grams) weigh 120 grams, the horror! Off to shop for some lightweight skewers.
It's not a problem, it's a hobby.
