Been needing to update this for a while. Got quite a few updates.
First off I got some Ti stem bolts
Stock Steel Stem Bolts 21.4g
Image

Black Ti Bolts 10.8g -10.6g

Image

Bracket for my mini pump. Including this because I don't ever take it off.
Topeak Micro Rocket Carbon Bracket 10.4g
Image

Oops, either I overtightened or this failed
Image

Replacement Hylix 25.4mm seatpost 145.9g excluding Ti bolts +7.3g
Image

Old post that broke was thinner
Image


New post, different seller is thicker and hopefully stronger

Image

Stumbled across a set of new SiSL2 crank arms for $260 that were 170mm which I'd been looking to try
SiSL2 170mm NDS 122.8g -39.8g
Image

SiSl2 170mm DS 127.4g -37.6g
Image

Scored some 9100 Brakes from the for sale section here, mainly to have things match :shock:
Shimano Dura Ace 9100 Brakes 326.5g -16.1g

After my 820 mount broke, I grabbed a K-Edge Combo XL for my camera too

Leftovers 48.9g for a total of 75g

Leftovers 50.8g for a total of 77.7g

I am building a city bike a can take to work, so I needed a cheap wheelset. Everything I was finding was either too expensive for that bike or worse than the Aksiums I already had. So I grabbed a set of Ultegra 6800 wheels during a 3x points weekend at Performance Bikes. I'll use these on my caad12 until I get my custom set.
Front Ultegra 6800 Wheel 715.8g -119g
Image

Rear Ultegra 6800 Wheel 940.4g -42.8g
Image
Ultegra 6800 Wheelset 1660g
Image

Got lucky for once and received a second chance offer from ebay
Shimano Dura Ace 9100 Left STI Shifter 184g -60g
Image


Shimano Dura Ace 9100 Right STI Shifter 186g -60g

Image

Shimano Dura Ace 9100 STI Shifter Set 370g -120g Total
Image

Current Total Weight 7310g
Image

Just got this in the mail, need to install it and update the weight tonight.

Shimano Dura Ace 9100 Rear Derailleur 158.6g -68.7g

Image

I got these just because they were cheap auction wins. I eventually want to try different gearing options. Now I have all three 10 arm Spiderings
Cannondale Spidering SL 50/34 161.1g
Image

Used Cannondale Spidering SL 53/39 ?????g
Got this as a full crankset, still need to dismantle it

Now for the parts they replaced for cataloging sake

Shimano 105 5800 Right STI Shifter 246g

Gotcha... I misread that statement.

Have you had any issues with BB creak? I'm still combating mine and I'm slowly building an arsenal of tools and gear to win the battle. Mine comes and goes with moisture!

No, the humidity hasn't come to RVA in force yet. You probably are getting it sooner. I got scared the other day, but it was my chain catcher being too close.
Have you tried those larger bearings? Maybe see if the spindle is in good shape? Sounds like something is expanding and contracting.
