The 550f weightwatcher tread
« on: October 23, 2011, 10:23:20 AM »
I'm not shure if this tread is in the right place , if its not please let me know .

In my head weight is very important to performance , and in my build i aim to loose as much luggage as possible , so i started picking it all  apart , and while doing so i figured i would weigh all the stuff i took off , so here is the guide to what the individual parts of the 550 weigh , if you plan on loosing some weight of yours or replace some items with lighter stuff ,you can sort of figure out the total before turning a screw :D

All stock items, rounded of to nearest 50g ( 1000g=2.205 lbs)
