Zed, your speeds described on your loaded Clem are still higher than mine in my minimally loaded Homer! I guess I still carry the weight on me that you put in the bike, and probably my total bike + rider weight is still higher.
Which just reinforces the futility of discussing bike weight and paying premium for a few savings in bike weight while disregarding the rider's weight. I can only keep trying to make myself lighter vs making my bikes lighter. Kudos on your review and comments!
