Yes, that is what I remember.  I dont know if the lady still has the podcast.  
 She had a shop in Cleveland, so if someone is from the area, maybe they can 
chime in.   
She also said if you feel like you want to push yourself back on the saddle, 
your distance to the bars is too great.  Counterintuitive, but I found it to be 
true, at least for drop bars.

During a appearance on The Opiniated Cyclist, Richard Schwinn stated the 
following:  Reducing the bike weight by 12 lbm, increases your speed by 1 mph, 
given the same power input from testing Schwinn did.

It will always have a dyno hub. I just can’t give up that kind of 
practicality. I didn’t know Paul components would save me any weight but I’m 
glad if they do. My Velo Orange levers were pretty feather-light already 
though. 
I probably do have the Platy set up as light as I dare, save the drivetrain 
stuff from White Industries. And Richard has a good point that all that money 
would only save me a third of a pound.

Does the raspberry Platy still have a dyno hub? If so that would be a big gain 
as far as weight loss and lessening drag. Otherwise you have it set up fairly 
light from what I remember about your posts. Paul components will sure help 
shave some grams.


When weight is brought up the first thing Grant would say is take weight off 
the engine. Well I just took a massive amount of weight off the engine so I 
feel that I am now free and clear to be a weight weenie about the bike. :)
