Change steel parts for alloy. Are your cranks steel? If they are black then check them with a magnet. Stem, bars and seat post they all adds up. I use Continental SportContact tyres on my converted mountain bike - 1 year of daily commute and no puncture; 26"x1.6 at 65psi max they are just right.http://picasaweb.google.com/Faasta/B...96191168053138
