My wheels are 1240 grams right now.    Not sure how much weight I would actually drop with just the spoke change.

The two main races I do are 37 miles 3200 ft climbing and 23 miles with 1600 ft of climbing.   To be honest the Spur is a wicked fast bike.   I think it just really suffers standing up and climbing and in the tight and twisty sections.   I have thought about keeping the Spur and just adding a dedicated race bike.   I really cant get my Spur any lighter without going to some exotic brakes and other minor tweaks or taking the dropper off.   I have pretty much shaved all the weight off of it that I can.   

I have also thought about just selling it for the new pivot mach 4, orbea oiz, or ibis exie.

I am currently riding a Transition Spur.   I built it frame up and weights 25 lbs.   Looking for a dedicated light weight race bike with lock outs for some xc racing.    FM909 or what else should I be looking at?    I like the geo numbers of the FM909.   Just a little undecided on sizing between L and XL.   6'1 and riding a XL Spur.   

Thanks

Thinking of building this frame up into a light weight race bike for some races I don’t need a FS on.    I need an XL and this frame has the steepest sta angle at 75 that I can find.   

Anyone using one?   Thoughts?
