Thanks for all the kudos...
I will definitely have to black out the crankset in one way or the other... either a paint job of the Rotor or another solution.
Also considering a set of lightweight alloy wheels, that will get the bike below 7 k's without any other upgrades. I kind of dig the Stan's ZTR Alpha 340's. I can get a 1.250 gram wheel set at a reasonable price.

How did you manage to get the 65 Enve's with the SES decals?? Nice!
Excellent bike in general.
Any chance of seeing it actually on a scale?

Had the matte black "Enve" decals custom made by a guy from UK. Then rip of the originals and pretty straight forward adding the new decals...
I will try to stop by one of the local bike shops, and see if they will weigh it for me... I'll shoot a pic of it

KB - Looks awesome.
I have a quote from a paint shop - they will do the job for 80€.
Question is: Maybe I should save the 80€... sell the Rotor cranks (only have 150 km on them)... and buy a Red Exogram, and sand it down.
Result: More or less same cost... and +100 grams saved.

J - Personally, I would go with the Exogram's, but that's purely because I prefer the look, i.e., for me they are more elegant (in fact beautiful, but the graphics suck IMO); plus you are saving weight.
If you do a search, there are plenty of really good sanding projects which provide a detailed list of how to do it.
You have a great looking bike there and for me it will look even better.

I am leaning more and more towards that idea - and while I am at it, I might as well get a ceramic press-fit BB instead of the stock Shimano (worth 25€). I need to change it anyway to go from Rotor to Sram.

that is a mean ass MF of a bike! Love the 3T stealth kit on it too. The ghost decals consistent throughout keep the theme nicely
A couple of updates...
The new Sram Red Exogram crankset sanded down, and mounted with the Stronglight CT2 rings - 548 grams
Ciamillo Zero Gravity SS brakes with Enve pads, and Alligator i-Link cables
Found a brilliant way to use the new Acros i-lock system. After a little cutting, the Di2 "control box" fits right in the fork steerer tube

I found out
Want to swap them anyway... looking for some black ones. Aluminum is actually okay... these tend to be as soft as butter. Need other black bolts - bottle cages
and saddle post clamp.

Latest update...
- Ciamillo Negative G-SS brakes
- Enve brake pads
- Enve quick releases
- Alligator iLink cables and housing
- Sram Red Exogram (sanded)
- RWD Garmin mount
Weight as in photo: 7,14 kilos
To get sub-7 I am looking at the following upgrades:
- Continental Attack/Force tires
- Continental Super Sonic tubes
- Smud carbon saddle
- KMC X10SL chain
That should by far get me below. And further more, I am looking at a +200 grams saving on the climbing clinchers (winter project)
