Sitting slip Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Put a lefty on it then wheels then tyres then carbon bits. Spokes can way a lot aswell
DIPSLICK Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Yea also sure he did, a gram is a gramwhen you weigh 60kgs
DIPSLICK Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Cheapest is to eat lessdrink less in your case :whistling:
Salty Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 1. Fork2. Wheels3. Cranks4. Bars5. Stem6. Seat post7 . Saddle8. Tires9. Cassette10 . Derailleurs When I upgraded my farm gate many years ago before the 29er evolution, the top 3 on the list made the biggest most noticeable difference. I did Frame after Crank, which also made a huge difference. Basically I would wait for good specials at the LBS or CC and by things when I could afford them and they were on a great special.
Jokerman923 Posted July 9, 2013 Author Posted July 9, 2013 Yip, I agree.....I dont think there is much weight in that rig of mine that I can shed.... Easier to go on a "racing snake" dieet and loose 10 or 15 kg's
rouxtjie Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 when you weigh 60kgsTrue. That is why I run all 6 bolts... DIPSLICK 1

RABUBI Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 sell old onebuy new one, in the long run it will be the cheapest
Jokerman923 Posted July 9, 2013 Author Posted July 9, 2013 Yip, if one is not in a rush you can save quiet a bit money wise hey............... Last week I bought R9k worth of crank for R2800 brand new never been fitted..... But having the patience to do this is another story
scotty Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 I guess common opinion would say wheels then fork or I may just be wrong .... Say it fast...fork and wheels. Stiggy 1
Bobbo_SA Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 I only use 3 anyway. Pro racer Geoff Kabush gets away with it and he rides allot harder than anyone here. I bet his are genuine branded bolts though....
rouxtjie Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 I bet his are genuine branded bolts though.... waaahaaa you didn't
Ceres Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Wheels and tyres have to be number one. Got myself a scott 910 last year with the standard wheels with xt rotor, xt cassette and maxis lust tyres (wanted to put on the lust as I use these as my training wheels now). Then got the AC race wheels with xtr cassette and rotors with Ikons this setup took almost exactly 1kg off the bike.
