Mmm, Mexican food. Tommy, how's the Mexican food over there? You enjoying your wonder bread tortillas?

Alloy brake nuts, took the pad holder grub screws out (2.6g for all 4!). Just use Campy fit pads and they don't fall out.
Cheers mate, you dont happen to recall the length of the brake nuts do you? i see that toronto cycles sell them, is that where you bought them?
ive also contemplated buying the THM brake shoes to lighten the brakes further.

The KCNC pad holders are only a few grams more and much cheaper.

The Mexican food is actually really good here?
Anyway, the cheapest way to do it is just buy a set of SRAM Force brakes, swap the pad holders with your current brakes, and then sell the Force brakes. You should only lose like 10 bucks and the pad holders come with Ti/Alloy hardware. Dremel the little ears off the bottom and lose an extra gram or two.
Not sure on the length of the nuts, just measure the ones you currently have. I actually stole mine from a set of Campy brakes.

Don't overthink it, building bikes is fun. Is the Berk List an SLR shape?
