Nya Nya. I rode it, took a [censored], rode it again and reduced the
bike/rider combined weight by 5.5%. Then I ate a muesli bar, increasing
the recalculated weight by 1.7%. After that, I filled my bidons, put
each of them into the $149 carbon fibre bidon cages, altering the
bike's weight by a massive 20%! (all calculations incredibly
approximate).I picked up my trusty steed this morning and it felt so light - then I
realised, it normally has a bidon of water on it. The weight was the
water!
I've heard of heavy water, is there a corresponding light water? How
much would you be prepared to pay?--

Remember in the Dune movie they wear special suits that collect your sweat
and recycle it into drinking water? You could wear one of those. (In bright
cycling type colours of course.) Then you can do away with your drink bottle
altogether.
