I love the diesel design edition but the bill was crazy high so I decide to keep the build with my Weiss ED clinchers

Today I finish tuning and adjusting the build, and weight it with the pedals and computer mount ..... 13.01 lb, waiting this week for the ti spindle, bolts and bow ties for my speedplay pedals and the sram red cassette, weighted with an ultegra cassette 11-28 ( 251gr)

your bike looks great! nice choice of parts although. side view-pic would be nice.
not sure about the ciamillo-breakset, i personally wouldnt use those in the mountain area or for racing.

btw: am i really the only person on this board being interested in this bike! obviously yes! this side appears increasingly-strange to me! :shock:

So that's how a black bike would look like with white spokes, not too bad at all. A good refence for anyone pondering about a set of Berd spokes (these are white only). Maybe it'll become a new trend :D

Stunning to say the least. Didn't want to use the term "phenomenal" due to the frame's name, but it is the only thing that came to mind. Awesome build truly.

As pointed out above, your brake choice, while light/carbon/cool looking, would have been the last of my choices. And by that I meant it would have not even made the list. After dealing with Ciamilo brakes for the last 10 years, I can honestly say there can't possibly be any worse kind of punishment to a cyclist. Don't get me wrong. I've descended the alps, Dolomites, and have ridden more mountain passes that one can count in that time using them, but never again at the expense of weight. After using the eecycles brakes for 2 rides, I m sold for life!!!

And to have a LBS that not only have heard of Lightweight but actually have more than one set of wheels laying around for you to try: dream of a lifetime!!!!!!!

Nice bike!
But for me personally the white in these LW is horrible.

I have always preferred the black LWs, but here they somehow fit super well. I think with all black LWs the bike would look dull.

Thank you everyone for their comments, I’m very happy with the build, looking forward to do climbing as soon as the weather improve, on regard to the Ciamillo brakes, I have the ee brakes as well, I may tend to swap them, the weight penalty is nothing compare to the outstanding performance of the ee brakes.
