I just eat fewer cheeseburgers the week of a race to reduce weight by that much.  :-)

However the stub axle has part of the forging/casting for 3 holes threaded for the securing nuts for that shield.  The one single threaded hole looks like it contributes nothing to the strength and intregity fo the stub axle itself and I wondered if anyone had ever removed that whole section it to save a bit of (unsprung) weight?
