Zaskar Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Ive got KCNC Skewers on my bike, and they weigh in at 44g for the pair. Carlo, you could loose quite a bit of weight if you change from the ITM components to Easton... Stem - ITM 189g vs. Easton EA90 116g (100mm)Bars - ITM 278g vs. Easton EC90SLX 195g (44cm)Seatpost - Felt 217g - Easton EC90 178g and like parra said the calipers - DA 324g vs. Zero G Ti 174g (inc. pads)(All actual weights measured from parts off my bike) Thats a weight saving of 345g, which would make your bike illegal! BTW, it looks stunning now with those Easton wheels! Great choice!Zaskar2009-01-22 01:57:25

AndreZA Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Carlo, you must now replace the gold skewers with red ones.
