For instance, using Ritchey WCS Classic bars and Stem and Ti bolts. 335 grams for the combo,
actually much cheaper than a lot of upper end bars that weigh significantly more. I use ultra light tubes and ROX rimstrip. Takes an extra 100 or so grams off per wheel, and costs about 5 bucks. I realize these things don't make a big difference, but to me, it is part of the art of the bicycle (and it feels cool when I pick my bike up). If you are not a weight weenie, that's fine, I don't care. Move on with your life and forget about the weight weenie forum.
