Hi all,
i have a ridley noah and am looking for a few places to lose weight.
Now i don't really want to open up a discussion on wheels / stems / bars etc as i am onto other areas.

I am told the ISP seat clamp is heavy circa 250g. i am also aware it has a fairly important job keeping my saddle connected to my bike.

My question is:
a) Are there lighter aftermarket ISP clamps for the noah?
b) If a) doesn't exist, is it safe to change the bolts over to Ti (i am assuming they are alloy) in terms of strength etc? There is 3 bolts, two fairly sizable ones around 1" long. How much weigh could be saved here?

thanks.
