Rychtarski custom HSS/Life/Zona

[olebole]

Just got my Rychtarski built again after being hanging in the basement for 18 months. Its a odd mix of components but I'm really happy with the final result and the way it performs.

Frame: Rychtarski custom steel, a mix of HSS, Life and ZONA tubing. Paragon stainless dropouts
Fork: Columbus Futura Carbon
Cranks: SRAM Force
Chainring: Garbaruk direct mount 50t
Shifters: Ultegra R8050 Di2
Brakes: Force 22
Derailleur: GRX Di2
Chain: Shimano DA/HG901
Cassette: Ultegra
Handlebars: Deda Zero100
Stem: Kalloy Uno 120mm 6d, rattled canned to match the frame
Seatpost: Hylix 27.2mm
Saddle: Selle SLR Titanium
Pedals: Time RXS Carbon
Wheelset: Superstar components arc 22
Tires/Tubes: GP5k 25mm, Tubolito
Bottle Cage: Alpitude

Total weight; 7.7kg

Got some 3T superleggera bars and July 21 (used to be planet x) brakes to be added.

Next up is probably some new wheels since I'm tempted to see how close I can get to the 7 kg mark

I am guessing minus the cassette the wheelset + tires weighs around 2300-2400g? I guess you could go with some Hunt 45mm Tubulars with some tubulars for a 250-300g weight saving. What wheelsets are you looking at?

[olebole]

I believe the arc wheelset is in the 1500gr range.
I'm looking in to some low profile carbon clinchers. The Light Bicycle R25 is looking like a solid option.

That is very nice

Nice, clean, looks very light, well done.

how does it ride?

[olebole]

It rides really really nice. It was built to be stiff since I mostly ride short, punchy rides.

Very cool...love leight weight steel bikes! Is the Rychtarski fillet brazed or Tig?

[olebole]

Thank you! Hopefully even lighter soon...

The steel is fillet brazed.

Love this bike, can't go wrong with fillet brazed steel

What's the frame weight?

[Wingnut]

Having Polish heritage these frames also appeal to me...could be a possibilty for me when I visit next time?

[olebole]

Down to 7,35 kg with some carbon (Saevid scr saddle and 3t superleggera handlebars).

Actually I can't remember the frame weight...

Minor updates (tyres, stem). Need to cut the fork. Next up is probably an Ultegra crankset.

Looks fab!

Are there no direct mount double rings availible to do a straight swap with the 1x chainring? Would be lighter and better looking than ultegra.

[olebole]

Thanks!

Actually the Ultegra swap is for pure aesthetics. Will probably gain some significant weight but I'm not really a fan of mixing shimano and sram.
Already ordered a 1x Ultegra chainring from Garbaruk
