We have done 4 or so btrda gravel rounds and grisedale stages last year
So i always have a keen interest in making things light as possible and getting the centre of gravity as low and central as possible
i wasn't that happy with running the spare wheel so far back as the rear strut brace of the cage is far to low
so i changed it



also sorted the rear spare wheel well to remove a bit of weight




so back to the cage and weight loss

bit of a blow over with paint and ....

how it looks with the carbon rear cards , carbon spare wheel carrier and a jack bag not looking to bad

so i few other bits i did to lose some weight
a bike carbon silencer that fits mint and was only 17 quid second hand , saved 4.5 kg !!!!!!!

a nice way to get rid of the massive rear bumper mount

and tweek the shape of the bumper


i also noticed that the rear axle was off to one side when we got the car , so i made an adjustable panard rod with rose joints

here it is fitted

cheers
