do you really need ust? the ultimate wheelset (methinks) is hope pro II on 721's (depending on course roughness and how smooth of a rider u are). yeah deffo go with hope pro II's if you decide to change. 823's are quite heavy...
My tires are ust at the moment. I think I'll change back because its too much trouble changing tires between race runs if they are ust.
an e13 lg1 will save you loads, is that a truvativ team seatpost? if not try and go for an I beam setup.
Lately what i am doing is geting used to 2.35 minnions over 2.5. you save alot of weight.
with those changes you'd be well below 41... maybe close to 40
Overall I wouldn't touch your bike. you have a bombproof bike at a great weight.
The yeti felt quite heavy at first but since i fiddled with the suspension it is more maneuverable. supposedly on a spreadsheet it is 41.5lbs. It feels around 44lbs. (I don't have a accurate scale)
hwatever you do gud luck with it

hey mate that is a good weight. I could work out cheap enough to get her down to 41Ibs without comprising strength or performance.
Good luck with it, hope she serves you well
