New and stickier tires made the biggest difference to mine. Also a good driving school!

Yep. I used to race bicycles and I still ride quite a bit. I get a kick out of guys that are chasing bike weight. After you get to about 19 lbs, its easily $1000 per pound to get any lower. and I look at them and they could easily lose 20-30 lbs off their fat butts for free. Hey just take dump before you ride and you probably lose a pound. There, you just saved a grand.
