ditch the steel rack it comes stock with and use one of the aluminum arc racks.
you can also chop down the bars so they are a bit narrower.
if you upgrade the wheels and use the schwalbe durano mango or conti GP tyres, that can also save weight.


but my mods are more utilitarian rather than weight savings.
