Note I said offset. Not able to remove much.
The reason? I'm a bit torn about flogging my two mtbs in order to refurbish the Norco hybrid, which weighs around 30lb anyhow...
There's not the remotest possibility of just buying a new bike. I'd stick to further modifying the Scott, but can't fit the wider tyres needed to give my knackered shoulder some comfort.
I could easily fit much lower gearing, for example.
If I really went for it, I might shave off enough from the Trek to get the weight to 30lb, but that would be pretty much the limit.
Your collective wisdom would be hugely appreciated.
PS can some kind mod edit that title, please?
