No, I wish... That's 50lbs off the bike... I'd like to do another 75 off me...

I've dropped about 30-40 lbs off of my bike, thanks to liberal use of magnesium and titanium. You'll be amazed at the difference it will make. Even more so if you'd buy some damn magnesium wheels.

It's about damn time I learned throttle control...

I am down for some light wheels, but there is no way in hell I'm even close to ready to drop the cheddar... Still looking for that sweet deal where some guy crashed his race bike, then his wife took it in the divorce, and she doesn't know what Marchesini or Ohlins means...

It does, but you can also hack a peice of $0.10 PVC pipe and make your own insert... which is what I plan on doing...
