Build complete for now:





I put on the Mandibles from my other bike.. will have to get some new cages!

Total weight including Speedplay Zero pedals, the heavy cassette, chain and crankset, 7250 grams.

Very pleased with the overall weight on a size 58 aluminium frame built with what I had left over from a wrecked bike and new parts bought "on a budget". The Carbonzone wheels are also quite heavy (and don't have that much life left in them, so looking for replacements in a while).

Love this stealthy bike!
Are those rims matt?

Without weights the bike doesn't exist

I love bikes that are a lot cheaper, are black and look extremely good!
And yours is one of them!!!!!

Thanks for all the compliments!

TP: My bad, I was just too eager to assemble the bike.. when I thought of weighing the frame/fork I had already put in the pressfit bearings (which was child's play and almost easier than threaded Shimano bearings)..

No, that would perhaps have been a better match though!
