On-topic upgrades for that heavy sled:

50g tires (as used in '84 olympics), w/ helium -115g 220g Schereen wood-filled rims -??g Alex Singer ft derailleur, losing a shifter -40g CLB housing -10g?? Regina ti chain -40g?? Kronos levers -20g?? Aerolite ti pedals -70g (almost on-topic) RH stem (same weight, but prettier)

These guys all have extremely low body fat, right?
