Great to see your completed Fuji build! The bontrager bars fits the bike just nice. Is the C59 saddle expensive? Would like to know your frame and wheel weight as well if you have it.

Thanks! The C59 was new but with a scuff on it so I paid 60% of full price. The full price is a little silly at $500. It's a surprisingly comfortable saddle though and the slr shape works well for me. Easton 90 SL wheels are 1167g - pretty good for 38mm depth. Frame and fork were right at 1kg.

Finally, great job! I got an early version of Altamira SL weight 4.95kg, Fuji is such a nice bike!
Sub 5kg - that's impressive. This is my 2nd Fuji - I think they're underrated.

Hey, yeah! It seems you are a Fuji fan, too! The picture is what mine look 2 years ago, it is also my 2nd Fuji (the first was crashed), and it weighted 4.95kg. Now I am repainting the frame as "Project SL" version (which means there is just a thin paint on the frameset), also upgrading the handlebar to ax-lightness ax 4200, the stem to ax-lightness Rigid, the break callipers to ax-lightness ax 3000, and the crankset to Thm CLAVICULA SE w/ CARBON TI X-ring, I think that will reduce the weight to 4.6-4.7kg. I will post my "new" Fuji once it is done!

One day I'll learn more about this stripping and refinishing - intimidating thought at the moment. The 4.6kg version should be pretty stealthy looking.
