that is what swung it for me in favour of lipo. to compete seriously, you need at least 6 packs, as you've pointed out. when getting my gear together to get back into the sport, i'd be looking at £300 for cells. stuff that!

2 sets of saddles = £90.

lipo definately evens out the playing field

of course, if a pack blows up and sets fire to my van, I might not be so pleased
