In general trying to lighten a bicycle isn't particularly cost effective. Bike parts are much more expensive bought piecemeal than bought as a complete bike. But is you insist the best way to go about is is to dissassemble your bike, weigh the parts (seat post, saddle, cranks, forks etc etc) and then replace them one by one with lighter parts.
