    Pair of these:

    To shave a whole 45g off the NRS's weight.

    TBH, I'm more interested in putting the NRS's current bars (Profile Bar-Non) onto the XTC...

    Yeh, Alligator I-Links. Although I dont see how it can be a weight reduction over standard cable. Surely it's heavier than regular gear outer?

    Yep.

    Outer is alloy rather than steel. I'll know more when they arrive and I've fitted them.

    2 Park Tools cone spanners
    Superstar SupaGripa grips in grey with white caps
    Haye Stroker Carbon brake pads

    Just ordered myself a Camelbak Mule and a pair of Endura Hummvee's :D

    I've also got some 661 Kyle Straight Knee Pads on order, Its the second time I've ordered them since the first website i ordered with wouldn't have them in stock for a month! The second site I ordered though said it would take a week for stock to arrive. Luckily its almost been a week now so they should get here any day

    They just are. Not sure why but I had some Nokons and they were very light. I think those ones are lighter still.
