2014 Addict SL - 6.2kg - Journey to sub 5.9kg!

[joshclick]

After graduating college and starting work, it's been a dream of mine to build up a bike like this, and it's finally all coming together! I've been a lurker on WW for quite a while and I'm excited to finally reveal my ride. I made a trip out to Central Park on a beautiful day and managed to pull together these photos to share

I also have these pictures entered into the WW photo gallery competition and I'm gunning for that 1st place prize! If you enjoyed these photos I would love your vote and support:

There are still some obvious places where I can lose weight, but it's definitely a work in progress and I hope to get it down to 5.9kg in a season or two.

Edit: I'd also be happy to give any reviews on the parts on here. It took me a lot of reading through the forums before getting the CCU's and Corsa CXs but I've been extremely happy about them. The TIME bars were also impossible to find any information on, but were a great purchase. The Chinese Selle SMP Full Carbon saddle was a risky buy, but is just like my padded Selle SMP Evolution.

Nice build, I'll pay a visit to your gallery posting. Respect for carrying a line item for the air in the tires
You could gain some savings migrating to SRAM red 22 groupset, if you are so inclined. THM fibula brakes, Schmolke bars, MCFK stem and seatpost, will get you to where you want to go, but seriously lighten your wallet!

Thanks! I was really suprised to see such a big difference with flat tires vs filled, and of course it counts for a lot in weight weenie land

I'm a fan of Shimano shifting so that piece may stay. Maybe next gen Di2 down the line (whenever that ends up coming out).

EE Cycleworks brakes would be more within my budget (-95g). I'll also have to pick up some DA9000 shifters (-55g). TI Speedplay spindles can probably save me 60g, and I definitely have a lot of weight to drop in my bars, but I'd like to keep something semi-aero to aero. Any suggestions for those that aren't uber expensive?

Hopefuly I can snag a top 15 spot for the photo contest and drop a ton of saddle weight (-52g)

(Total: 262g savings, just 48 more theoretical grams to go!)

pop products-parts of passion skewers, about 30 gram, titanium axle and alu. butterflies for pedals, that will get your pedals down below 150 gr. Maybe kcnc brake shoes will save you a little weight. Extralite ultrastar expander, deda bar tape less than 40 gr. if you put it on the same way like you have now ( http://www.wigglestatic.com/product-med ... h=1100&a=7 )

Cannondale SISL 2 with spiderrings is 525gr on the scale. You can get used ones for 300-400 on ebay. I think that would save >100 gr for a relatively cheap price. They're also blacked out so they would look good on your black bike.
