There is definitely much less movement without them.
Eliminating the tube rings has certainly given me food for thought. I’ve got quite robust rings on mine which don’t flop around but add about 1.5kg. I thought about drilling them but I calculated a reduction of only about 200g while maintaining integrity. I may have a look at tube saddles. Loosing 1kg is a 10% gain which isn’t insignificant. Good on you for thinking outside the box and making what you have work.
