Hi, everybody.

At first, thanks for this forum and for all members who share ideas about bike building
There are already so many black and light bikes, but i want achive esteticaly and riding satisfaction in priority of weight for example.

This pic is starting point(just for overal proportion of the bike with 30mm height rims and 28mm tyres).



More pics with weight etc at this album https://photos.app.goo.gl/dSfveFdQey36qk8e7

To be continued.

Way to go, Pavel! Awaiting for one more outstanding&lite bikes here.
Why only 30mm height rims? Not aero?

Vik61, thanks

I'm already has aero race bike viewtopic.php?f=3&t=152220&p=1646573#p1646573 and 60mm, 36mm wheelsets
This bike(Aethos) for riding in mountains, i think 30mm wheels much better for this purpose.
Btw, Farsports has very nice Black Friday deals, i ordered Feder 30 wheels with Extralite hubs.

Looking forward to seeing how this build turns out. I'm doing something similar with a blue 56cm Aethos Expert - not with the end goal of being super-weight weenie - and I'm appreciating some of your parts choices. I might go in a similar direction, especially on the wheels.

dcj10, thanks for interest. I hope this information help anybody build better bike )
I can answer why i choose this parts and ideas behind this selection )

Today i cancel my order at Hibike.com wich cant ship my order from 19 November(some troubles with DHL export docs) and place new one in https://www.gambacicli.com/it/shimano-d ... -2022.html

www.gambacicli.com has 170mm cranks in stock as i need and it was very fast and gentle conversation and send me photo of my groupset

[dcj10]

Gorgeous. So tempting just to leave it in the box?

[freepk]

dcj10, all parts in different places I have to join all together before open the boxes

Still waiting wheels, handlebar, cranks with powermeter. I hope i can build bike before New Year and can ride on it in 2022 ))

Interesting tires from Maxxis

[Vik61]

Why chinese powermeter? I think Quarq is much more accurate and fit Red cranks well

Vik61, Quarq DZero with Praxis Buzz chainrings 50/34 already ordered and comming Pics in spoiler updated

I found this hanger. Looks like Sigeyi TH1 but many times cheaper. Does anybody try it?
