My Z5sl
Moderators: MrCurrieinahurry, maxim809, Moderator Team
greetings.
been a lurker for a long time but seems I have something to share now. My new Parlee Z5sl and Enve components have been arriving over the last few weeks. Not sure how I got to this point but it sure is fun. Not really trying to be ultra light just have a nice build. weight of the frame, fork, heaset, stem, post, bars was 3lb 15oz. Wheels are Enve 45 Clincher. i have not weighed the wheels yet.

Wouldn't it suck to find out yours weighs 70g more jk. Nce nice nice.
Man that's just not right.
My Z5 mostly finished. Currently 14lb 9oz. I could easily shave some weight but not the main focus. I went with the campy brakes because I loved them on my last bike and I like brakes that stop. Still need to drop the bars some and cut the steerer. I thought I wanted to ghost out all the logos to match the frame but I have cahnged my mind and will be doing a repaint of frame, fork, stem, post, bars, wheels to match. I will use a brighter charcoal color with a white outline and some red accent to tie in the record group and the seat.

Nice bike(s)... is there a thread for that Cervelo S5?
No thread on the S5. i painted it for a friend locally because he hated the red and blue stripes. I used a smoked silver and charcoal metallic in the same stripe format as stock and then used flattened clearcoat. It is the best paint job the Cervel never did. the thought was that people would be asking how to order that model and it appears to have worked. I have had some calls on doing this paint to others.
That S5 is nuts!! So clean, so black, so perfect. Wow.
