    Rear or front? It's much easier to get away with an unbalanced rear.

    But if you know how much fell off, just get the same amount and put it back on!

    400g is 14 oz. You have somethong wrong. maybe 40g?

    If you want, i can mail you some weights in 1/4 oz increments.

    In this hot hot weather, the glue on the stick-on weights can sometimes melt. Cover your weights with duct tape for the heat wave.
