just swapping the front caliper bolts for the Probolt Ti Racespec ones saves a total of 136 grams !!!!

Wow ! now it's so much easier to push around the garage

off to A1 Anodisers in Crawley today, apparently will be done by tomorrow afternoon too ! and for a very reasonable price

Well, A1 called at lunchtime today to say all done ! very quick work indeed !!! I can't comment yet on the finish as the bloody M25 stopped me getting there before they closed tho' LOL

So I'll just have to curb my excitement until tomorrow

When you never know, but my Titanium order from Probolt might turn up also
