Darimo seatpost is about the only other thing I would add but happy how it is for now!
Very nice new ICS aero cockpit. Saw one today in the flesh on a new TMR01. Wish this had been available when I changed the front end of mine to an Enve aero bar. How are you liking it? Is it stiff?
I like its cable integration, weight, and it might have a smaller frontal area than the Enve ses bar with stem face plate.

- Sram Red crankset sanded back to raw with Quarq PM & Carbon Ti Chainrings - 605grams
Are you running the SRAM BB86 to DUB Bottom bracket? I recently switched to SRAM Red DUB cranks and found that they don't spin so freely because I need to tighten the preload a lot to prevent any noise from the BB. Did you have the same issue?
I’m actually running the Hope BB with reducer cups to sram dub. It was recommended by my local shop as being best option for longevity.
It doesn’t spin freely like any of the viral CS videos you see but those differences at marginal and I don’t want to spend £200 every year to replace the shot bearings

Thanks. Yeah I’m loving it to be honest, stiffer than the previous ICS Carbon cockpit and and I like the narrow profile and width.
I do legit think this is up there with the best integrated cockpits such as the new roval and even potentially the unreleased enve one piece but people overlook it for other bikes because it’s Bmc Proprietary

In this setup approx 6,8Kg ... some grams more or less. The Duke Baccara SLR2 SL wheels ride very nice with the DT240 SP hubs - Speci Turbo T2/T5 28mm rubber with Ridenow innertube. Also a Ceramicspeed cage update.

Hi all, first time poster, long time lurker!

I got this 2017 BMC Teammachine SLR03 in April after having to move to Sweden on short notice, and needing a bike to train on asap.

I'm absolutely in love with this thing and have clocked over 6000km on it so far.

I'm never selling and have a lot of plans for it.

I want to get some 45/55mm deep rims for it but have no idea how wide I can go?

Wheelsfar and Lightbicycle have some 26mm and 28mm external width options, and Lun Hyper SE 23 is 27.6mm wide, but I'm not sure if the rim brake calipers are wide enough? :noidea:

I would love to go for the Luns, but the cross winds out here are on another level, so I would probably go with the 28mm LB x-flow rims if I could, although apparently the brake tracks on WF and LB are really good.
