Looking for recommendations on lightweight gum tires to help lighten the load. Bought these severs cuz they were available locally and matched the look I want, but I want to go with something lighter and switching to tpu tubes. I ride primarily street and a little park.

Sweet whip!! What frame and stem??
Bro the gum part makes that tough. Have you considered a compromise…. Tan walls. Maxxis? Go a touch thinner.
There are probly few others. Odyssey Aiken maybe.
What seat? I run the cult cans gum tires. Idk about the weight but they look sick
Lightweight gum tires just ain’t really a thing. Just go for the tpu tubes first, it’ll make a big difference.
