I can be a weight weenie if the price is right, I cannot hide that, But fit and comfort come first for sure. price is not always the factor. back to my answer I simply say this: No matter what you weigh you simply expend more energy carrying a 40 pound garbage can to the curb than a 30 pound can to the curb, so take it off the bike would be the answer. not that losing a few pounds would be totally bad too.
There are two kinds of people in the world, "Those who help themselves to people, and those who help people!"
