Phase One went out really early. .

as did David Checa on the 94 bike, and the bike Plater is sharing crashed out of the lead abot 40mins into the race, rejoining in 29th but some back to back sessions by Plater got them back up with the top ten.
Still a frw Brits out there in various teams

Other than those, what are my options? The cheaper the better obviously.

I could weigh my standard SSie ones and also remove the ones Carl made for me from my 750SSie and weigh them, but the best route would be to follow AKs advice and get the Monster ones that Carl makes and try and keep adapter brackets to a minimum
