A few things.
1 - That bike is beautiful.
2 - The build is dope, 7.3kg is a great weight on a bike that is more about ride quality than low weight.
3 - You take superb pictures, I'm envious.

Hey, how come your Road Logic looks so much cooler than mine?

I really like it. Impressed by the weight and how the bike remains standing.

@jbaillie
Thanks man, I appreciate it!
I feel that 7.3 is really alright. Reckoned that if I ever need extra kilo advantage, translates to like 1.3% (LOL), itd be easier to shave it off my own body, right?
For the photos, I try to find a spot thats on open shadow and that has closed ceiling. So the bike is kind of under something. Its just to take care, that theres good direction of light and clear deep shadows.

To keep the bike standing, a few strategically placed spokes and an allen key can go a long way. You can actually see the allen key under the back tire.

Lovely, but for me:

1). Carbon seatpost surely
2). I'd sand and re-lacquer to loose the yellow on the groupset - distracts from the frame
3). I'd have mounted my tires in line with the valves and photographed the bike with the valves centered!

@bencolem

on 1&2 I hear you.
I`ve had the same seat/seatpost combo before and felt that it works good. But yes, ultimately it would be cool to have it carbon.

On #3: You cant mount tubulars in different ways. Why Veloflex doesnt have the logos on the valves? I do not know. But I do know, that they ride better than any clincher, so I guess I gotta live with the off balance valves. :)

@mullet.
Its not Ti. Its RitcheyLogic steel.

Frame and fork are 2.1kg, if I remember correct.

Doh! Forgot they were tubulars! Didn't realise that Veloflex didn't center mount.

beautiful bike
May I ask where you got the wheels from? - giving a bit of thought to a 28H Winium wheelset but need to find a source.
