Just had my favourite bike rebuilt with DA9000 and Gen II LW Sprint wheels. Love this frame. Otherwise much the same as previously.
7.11kg with Racing Zero / Ultegra cassette
6.63kg with LW / DA9000 11-25
Still very nice looking if not nicer.

Wait I know you the tall lanky dude who rides for total-pos team with the white aero helmet yeah?
I guess there's worse hobbies than making a bike light? Right?

The only things that are on the radar are:
- DA 9000 SRM
- A set of LW Ventoux
(neither of which are in my near future unless I win the lottery!)
Thanks for the comments.
(and yip, weeracerweenie, that's me...)

Great great bike. Would love to have a 586 too.

Applause! Good looking bike. Have ridden LOOK for the last 4 years until I switched to Colnago. Have had some bad experiences with two broken ISP seatposts and no real commitment from the LOOK distributors. Gave up and moved on to Colnago, however LOOK will always make me smile.
works in the industry

Still got this rig (currently my only roadie while I wait for my Baum to be built). A few minor changes made
- switched to RSP / cut post for ease of travel (also -25g compared with ISP)
- now running Fizik Cyrano bar / stem
- SRM 9000 crankset,
Currently 6.98kg on Fulcrum Zeros ready to race (transponder holder / race number holder). Nothing I want to change ATM!

Baum? Mmmmm. I've really enjoyed seeing Above Category's pics of Baum bikes...
I don't recall seeing many yellow Look bikes. Different is good - especially in a sea of matte black bikes on the road.

here it is after this evening's spin. all reliable race-ready kit but still sub-7kg as you see it here.
could easily get it sub 6.8kg less:
- race number holder
- transponder holder
- chain catcher
- light skewers
