what do they weigh?

I have in the past discovered that things are not always way as much as they look, ally is quite light after all, If yours only weigh 500g and a £100 set weighs 400g thats cost you £1 per gram, so to loose 16,000g (16Kg) would cost you how much!

I actually did buy some ally rear sets for about £100 I think, But if I could have made a set for £10, I would have.

All said and done, they do look good and I love my bike, But where do you stop spending money?

anyone know where I can get one of those under seat exhaust made to cut aerodynamics?

P.s. My bike weighed 168kg with a slight rearward bias, but sit a fat bloke like me on top it doesn't make much differance.
