New bike Trek SL 5.2 --what's next place to shave weight?

[ipenguinking]

sandico, how do you like those RD400 wheels?

[TiBikeNut]

get the m2Racer pedals or
the m2Racer seatpost or

And if you can get rid of the ultegra and get the campy record...

Get some super light clinchers

The FSA RD400 are awesome I had a pair before I traded them in for a set of Zipp 202s


You can try selling your stuff ... or just wait till you wear out the parts... from the reviews I've heard ... it wont last that many thousands of miles.

Good luck,

George

I think they're great, not THE lightest but in the 1500gm range they are a far better deal than SSC SLs or other $800 wheelsets. I got them from Airbomb.com about 8 mos ago and they've been bulletproof. I oaid around $300, they had a 10% off coup, they were regularly $330 or so. So, half of a set of SSC SLs.

Firm ride, but plenty stiff. They climb very well and spin up fast on sprints. I like them even more on the new Trek, prob b/c of the new Ultegra crank/bb design that's really stiff.

I read many reviews before buying, basically people loved'em or hated'em. Put me in the first category!
