Took a some snaps earlier of a few things i've changed recently before I head off for Nice. Full Super Record, Conti competitions (saving 60g), Scott bottle cage (sanded the logo off), Mounted my iphone on the stem (removed cateye), Ritchey SL bars (saving 30g). Also stuck insulating tape over white logos on the ISP and chainstay while I work out the best way to remove them.

That is a nice bike, but you can still change a few things.

The original scott spacer. it weights 15 grams and can easily be replaced by lighter ones.
The mavic skewers, they are pretty good, but there are much ligher options out there.
The in line cable adjusters aren't really necessary either.

maybe some lighter brakes later?

Looking at some new skewers soon, probably AX Black. Is there a newer, lighter version of these pedals now too? As for the brakes I dont even trust the campags with carbon wheels on decents (i'd have disks if i could haha)

I kind of like the decals on the wheels as it adds a bit of life to an all black frame!

I'll also throw my lot in with the 'keep the decals' vote.

I think they actually look nice with the frame. Which is NOT a view I would normally take with those particular Mavic decals.

Thanks mate, it was 6.1kg the last time I checked before those photos. I had a fitting the other day and have switched to a 100mm stem as i was overstretched on the SR hoods after switching from Record.
Do you know which Time pedals are the lightest now, I dont mind updating mine but am struggling to find some that arent red! :)

Really nice addict and also an incredible view up there where the shot was taken. I also have that Scott jersey, only it's a bit torn up after a spill I took in July.

+1 keeping the decals. I don't like the 100% stealth look. There need to be some accents and the ones on the Mavic CCUs look good with the addict.
