It’s winter at it’s coldest so I ordered a bib short for the average Norwegian summers day: an Assos T 23 RS.

Darimo IX2 stem in 110mm. Downsizing for better comfort and to account for the reach of the Darimo bars (which I forgot to consider when I got the first stem).

Make quality has definitely improved - this one has almost no pitting on the clear coat surface compared to the first one. ImageImage

XTR MT900 Rotors in 140-160mm. Need some 28mm tubeless tires now, and a fine wheelset to go with the BMC.

When I was purchasing Ti bolts from Acer I stumbled upon these pulley wheels with ceramic brgings so I thought what the hell.
Came in at 14gr with wheels of carbon.

Treated myself with an YBN SLA-211 gold chain and found a great deal for the Carbon-Ti hubs, only downside is that I have to order a Shimano Freehub from Carbon-Ti as this has a Campagnolo. Image

New Rotors, these are 1.9mm instead of 1.8 so hopefully good heat resistance. New Valves and a clamp.

Are you using the Ashima rotors for road or gravel? I would offer a word of warning based on personal experience as the vents in the braking surface can accumulate mud/silt which when damp/wet can and will act like an abrasive slurry which can seriously accerlate wear and tear of resin/organic brake pads.

Mtb, I have never had any issues with excessive wear in muddy conditions with resin pads.

^PaavoS, you might know already, but I'll mention it anyway: Campag 11s cassettes run absolutely fine with Shimano 11s drive trains.

Yeah I do not doubt that, but I already have plenty of Sram Red and Dura Ace casettes so just makes sense to use those rather than buy a Campag also.
