haha the crappy maddux/formula wheels on my road bike are something like 2400g for the pair so it would still be a .7kg weight loss for the bike!

Recently, after a 30-odd mile trip to/around Swinley Forest on my Giant Anthem, I weighed the dirt I dry-brushed off the bike a few days later (just for a giggle).

It turns out that I can save around 750 grams just by giving the bike a wash, so I don't need new wheels, just a new hose-pipe...
