Jumping in as this tails off, but recently I inherited some shop scales and started weighing everything. It has only just occurred to me how light our Rivendells generally are in the grand scheme of things. Rim brakes really do make a difference in how light the forks can be built and that seems to be a huge factor in overall weights. Just something that's been on my radar lately, I have been planning on trying to get my Homer as light as possible now that it has been retired from commuter duty. Excited to see a lightweight build to get the ideas flowing!
