Yeah I get that. I think taking this under UCI will give me a certain perverse pleasure though. I can also swap all of the parts onto a different frameset at some point in the future.

More importantly - my wife still sees the same bike... Image



hahahahaha :D that's a good point! and if you like the frame and it fits you then it's no point of replacing it :) I'm aiming to do similar thing with my Canyon Roadlite, which is relatively cheap bike but rides nice and I like it :)

I like the concept, but sub 15 pounds seems a big ask unless you ditch that wheelset and go with a light set of tubulars.

I'm fairly confident that won't be necessary...

Maybe I'll be wrong - we'll see. :D

My 6KBikes seatpost finally turned up. It weighed in exactly at the 112g it was advertised at. This also enabled me to fit the SLR Tekno saddle. The post and saddle swap dropped me 140g.

I also swapped the 105 chain for a KMC X10SL.

Just over 1kg to go...
