I've just ordered some titanium spindles for my chromoly speedplay zeros. What sort of a weight saving should I expect?

So it is about 50 g. Not bad. I've see bowties for sale, 2 carbon, two titanium, but I belive with those you can clip on only on the Ti side.

I think it was at Dulight. one side wascarbon, the other titanium, and there was a caveat that you could clip on only on the titanium side.
What brand and where did you score em? I am pursuing this exact upgrade! My stock chrome zero weighed 111g.PokojniToza wrote: ↑Wed Jan 16, 2019 12:53 pmI've just ordered some titanium spindles for my chromoly speedplay zeros. What sort of a weight saving should I expect?

All my four bikes have titanium spindles from Tispindle.com
They weight roughly half the weight of the chromolies they replace.

www.dulight.fr. There are probably many others out there, I chose this one due to (relative) proximity.Twocanlan wrote: ↑Thu Jan 17, 2019 6:07 pmWhat brand and where did you score em?

I have a set of zeros with Ti spindles and bowties. Total weight for both pedals is now 145g
The Chromoly pedals I believe have a stock weight of around 305-310g, so the savings are pretty significant. About half the weight. Probably one of the best value upgrades you can make in terms of grams saved/dollars spent.

Yep. Great value for money by all accounts. I am planning to get the Ti bowties next time I order something else and save some more.
