I also bought a new seat post. The one I've been using has extra hardware on it to make the saddle adjustable. The one I got is fixed, though the slotted holes still provide enough adjustment. I figured it would be lighter but I couldn't find any numbers online so I just bought it. Sure enough it is about 100 grams (0.22 lbs) lighter.
As long as I have practice making a comparison chart...
Old Part | Weight | New Part | Weight | Savings |
Aggressively milled KH Moment cranks - 125mm/150mm | 444 g / 0.98 lbs | KH Spirit cranks - 127mm/150mm | 431 g/ 0.95 lbs | 13 g / 0.03 lbs |
KH adjustable post (cut short) | 258 g / 0.57 lbs | KH fixed forged post (cut short) | 158 g / 0.35 lbs | 100 g/ 0.22 lbs |
That's another quarter pound removed. Most of it is static weight and not rotational, but I'll take it.
I'm actually more excited to have a working muni than the weight loss.
