Saving weight
Just been checking through my notes to see about saving weight on Simon Knowlsons 748RS to make it more competitive in the Axe murders Open 600 class
And here is what I have
916 stock 3 spoke Front 5.26kg
Marchesinis
Alloy standard 5-spoke front 4.2kg
Magnesium 5-spoke front 3.1kg
Magnesium 3-Spoke front 3.2kg
916 stock 3-spoke rear 6.2kg
Marchesini
Magnesium 5-spoke rear 3.75kg
Swing Arms
Standard 748/916/996 setup 9.4kg
Magnesium Kit weight 7.1kg
Weight saving 2.3 kg
May have sourced a mag swing arm, I have to go and check it out tomorrow
