new bike soon - any thing look too porky to start with?
I am thinking about getting a new Cervelo R5, anything on the list looks like it needs to be switched? Going to a Red cassette would knock off 70 grams for $200. Anything low hanging fruit below that wouldn't cost too much?

I would also buy lighter brakes. Ciamillo would be my choice.
I also wonder, if it is possible to use any "standard" crank with Cervelo. Isn't Rotor one of the heaviest cranks available?
Theese are two components, I would switch on my bike.

I don't think the rotor 3DF is one of the heaviest cranks out there. I use the 3D+ and I love it. If you're also looking for a cheap SRM alternative to install eventually, the power2max meter will fit on your rotor crank.
The palladio team isn't the lightest seatpost in the world. The Dorico LTD is >30g lighter width for width length for length for $25 based on the 3T website vs the palladio team. Or you could get a ricthey superlogic and swap the steel bolt to ti and have a sub 150g seatpost for a little more. Agree on the crank. If no future plans for powermeter I would grab a new SRAM GXP + lighter rings (praxis?) and save 100g over the rotor. Will need some adapters though for the crank. Changing the expander and topcap to extralite will save about 30-40g dependant on the expander/top cap set up for about 80 dollars. Should be a nice build.

Stock 2013 R5 RED $5900
They weighed one with wheels and everything and I think it was 14.7 with the stock heavy wheels. Mines will be a 58 but with my C24s it should be under 14
