Ryan where did you find that? Are they custom anodized? Can’t find that color anywhere online:(

It’s like they were made for this build! Oh man if you can get those that’d be sweet!

Those brakes are too much! Lol

[godzuki26]

I just ordered them!! I would have missed the 09/21 deadline. Calipers are more of a hot pink than pastel pink but they are too cool to not jump on. Can someone find me a pink cassette now? On the Felt build someone found me a purple cassette which worked out great.

Wow, pink brakes...............

Must say not for me but really look forward to the final set up/images, great thread

Haha.. I saw these brakes on Canecreekusa instagram and came here already predicting what the news.
Sure they developed for you.

@Marin - yes the Recon 11-36 cassette is an 11 speed. I had to stop myself from ordering the 150 gram aluminum version. The 210 gram titanium version was the only way to go. It was reasonably priced at $250 Usd vs $170 Usd for the aluminum.

The teeth on the 11-36 are:

11-12-13-14-16-18-21-24-28-32-36T

Should be fine. Omni Racer makes the lightest ti cassettes but right now they only go up to an 11-28.

I am noticing that on many crank sets for road that use a 1x chainring, the BCD is 130mm unless it is direct mount. Both the LTD models of the 3T Exploro and 3T Strada have THM Clavicula SE cranks with the 130 bcd bolt pattern. Not sure why the larger diameter but for single ring track bikes the bcd is 144mm which is even wider. This may be obvious to some but I don't quite understand why a wider bolt pattern for single rings. Can someone help me understand?

For now, here is what I will be using. A Clavicula SE with 170mm length and 130 bcd. I got one of the lighter ones. The 130 bcd cranks I have seen betweeen 302 and 307 grams. Lucky me!

I am doing what RyanH did with the bottom bracket and will use the Lightning PF30. The new THM PF30 bottom brackets are over 100 grams and will cancel out the weight savings of having a sub 300 gram crank. I was able to save an additional 5 grams by getting the Enduro ceramic bearing upgrade straight from Lightning’s web store.

If anyone was wondering, the Preload screw weight below. This is not something I want to modify or replace as there have been reports of this piece coming loose and falling off. The old Clavicula used an M6 screw with a cap that was the same as what you see on a headset. So making the nondrive side all carbon with a Fibrelyte Preload cap as I did on the Clavicula Classic will not happen for the SE.

Some more pink

[godzuki26]

I think this looks pretty nice. Right now there is a 44 tooth Rotor noQ chainring on there just to see what it will look like. I am still waiting for the carbon chainring. I am not feeling the gray decals. I must do something.

Yes that happened to me, leaving the crank arm swinging off my shoe.
The new preload caps have now been modified with two tiny Allen key grub screws to lock it in position. Well worth getting one for piece of mind. THM sent me one for free.

dose the Lightning BB use alu or delrin cups. My Tune one is delrin and came out with stock bearings at 77g, got it down to 66g with full ceramics so I suppose it would be similar to the Lightning with ceramic hybrids.

Would appreciate a tip where to get the Rideay pulleys from.
These hot pink EEs.....
