Looking to build a 12-lbs climbing bike

How much do you weigh? This influences wheel decisions a LOT. I also don't recommend the Canyon. Sure the frame may be lighter by a bit, but there aren't any light 1 1/4" stem options out there.

I'm 155-lbs.

eTap is heavier than R9150, Tune Skylines are trash.

How about Ax-Lightness Ultra 25 Tubs? Better than Enve 2.2 Tubs with ceramic hubs?

Way better than 2.2's but your initial post suggested Shimagnolo so I'm not sure if you're worth saving

If i had a healthy budget for a dream bike right now, it would be the evo with mechanical SR and bora 35. Electric and/or discs woulf be wonderful too but the total for a highend bike would be ridiculous, i'll never have that kind of money

35mm carbon rims do make sense as such wheels are stiffer than shallower rimmed wheels given the same spoke count.

That said, forum member RyanH had a very short time with Skylines before they killed themselves (UNfortunately not taking him along).

Fixed it for you
