Eriksen w/S&S couplers and a pair of Pegorettis (non-WW)
Moderators: MrCurrieinahurry, maxim809, Moderator Team
Hi, just wanted to introduce myself and my bikes. I wouldn't call any of these bikes weight-weenie, but I think they're cool. Hopefully you'll find them cool too. Someday I hope to get a true weight-weenie bike, but until then I'm pretty happy riding these!
First up is an Eriksen with S&S couplers and etched logos. The build list includes Campy Record, Edge 2.0 fork, Eriksen sweetpost and Moots stem, and a custom ceramic-coated 27mm Kinlin clincher wheelset with Alchemy ELF and ORC hubs from Troy Watson (Ligero Wheelworks). The bike weighs 17lbs (7.7kg) which isn't bad for a travel bike with couplers.
Next up is a Pegoretti Duende, built with Campy Chorus, Reynolds fork, Thomson seatpost, Deda stem and bars, PMP headset, and a Campy Neutron Ultra wheelset. Weight? 18lbs (8.1kg), obviously non-WW.
Last up is a Pegoretti Luigino. It has a Pegoretti steel crown fork, Campy Centaur, Brooks swallow titanium saddle, Nitto stem and bars, and a custom white DT Swiss wheelset with all decals removed. This thing is a porker and weighs 21lbs (9.5kg)!!! But it gets the most positive comments of any of my bikes. And I don't seem to be any slower on this bike than the other two.

Holly cow that is something speciel. Thanks for sharing them with us. You are a very lucky man.
What are the wide bands on the toptube and downtube on the Ericsson. And how do those Troy Watson wheels ride, I'm looking at them myself? Is the braking on ceramic just as good as on ordinary aluminium?
