My v10.4 was 13.45kg, not sure what that is in lbs, 29? Anyway, too light! Not stable in the air, deflecting on rough terrain, rock gardens, etc, there is such a thing as to light, arround 15kg it was alot better to ride
I wonder why this was. Overall you didn't reduce the weight of the whole bike+rider by that much. Just 1 1/2 kg less feeling bad???? Did you switch to single ply tires and used a lot of pressure to make them work? This would explain the things you described.
