Thought the caad12 and 2016 evo fork were the same to be honest, and also lighter than that previous year fork you have there?

When I was shopping for my caad 12, I understood that the high end caad 12 had the 2016 hi mod evo fork. The 105 model that I have just has the same fork as the regular 2016 evo. Is that not right?

Only black inc got the hi mod evo fork, but i didnt know if the regular evo and regular caad12 fork is the same..

Anyway
Sanding all the paint on my evo fork weight down 22 grams to 280, i know i can sanding it more but i saw a pink spot on the bare carbon, should i stop here or sand it more im planning to give a thin layer matte clear coat so its still protected.

And the rest of all i need is here except the saddle

Zipp sl bar 44 (will sanding this thing make a difference?)
Sram red shifter, fd, rd, cassette, pf 30 crank, ceramic speed bb bearing.
Tufo s3 pro tires

I'll weight them and put it on the spreadsheet

Looks amazing
What's the deal with the huge pulleys? Are they really worth $400+?

Havent ride them yet but based on my friends feedback for ceramic speed, they gain advantage on climbing though :)

Seatpost cut, bar tape on, still using look keo max, heavy saddle still on, but looks like i have to replace the zero gravity with dura ace brakes.. The rims is too wide for zero g to handle.. So even with the pedal change probably will stay around 5.7 kg and its not too bad for alloy bikes
