A 'quick' calculation shows that lightening the flywheel should have little effect on moving from rest. If you went from a 40lb to a 20lb flywheel you would need to raise your rpm by just 100rpm when moving from rest to have exactly the same energy stored in the rotating assembly. I doubt whether one would notice the difference.
