I'm not sure, but I think there is already a thread on this... Haven't done a search though, so I could be wrong.

Taking off a couple ounces on a light bike is probably comparable to taking off a couple pounds by removing door panels or a radio or something like that in a street car. Why do it, right???

Yea, in ratio.

But taking out a door panel or a radio is a little safer than taking off the main thing that lets drivers know that you are in the road on a bike..

Hopes of going faster are not worth the risk of getting run down IMO
