No just turn it around, the printing isn’t always correct. If the caliper is in the high position on a 160mm rotor, the low position will be for 140

The rear you just remove the adapter

Cool. Thanks robbosmans. Will order the rotors while waiting for my LB wheels to be delivered.

Currently I have replaced the stock saddle with a carbon saddle , vittoria latex tubes with GP5Ks and Sram Red 11 crank with CarbonTi 52/36 chainring with Assioma pedals. Generic 15g bottle cage. Ti bolts on F/R derailleur.

Planning to replace Ultegra rotors with Galfer wave and getting the Sigeyi DM hanger.

Is there a light axle option for this bike. Any other weight loss suggestion? Need to lose some weight myselfImage

Anyone have any suggestion on losing additional weight? Have ordered a wheelset which will probably lose close to 400g. Ordered 140mm Galfer wave rotor. So total could potentially be close to 500g lost(Estimation as no weight scale). May go TPU tubes and change the rear 28mm GPs to 25. Have yet to order to bolts for the handlebar and brake calipers.

Does anyone has a feedback on these axle?

I use that brand for my Cervelo R5 axles.
They work great as long as you don't over torque them.

That label is correct. It says 160mm OR 180mm on 180/160mm mount. But it's a 160/140mm mount, so the 160mm applies. 140mm is printed on the other side, so that when you flip the mount, the text facing out and readable.

FYI, I measured my thru axels and they're not as depicted in the listing.
The front DT Swiss thru axle (12x100mm) weights 30 grams. The rear DT Swiss thru axle (12x142mm) weights 40 grams.

Thats what I thought as the pictures showing the Aeroad axle weight is with lever. Guess not much to be lost in a mostly integrated disc bike 30g looks decent to be lost

Those screws look a bit „corroded(„?). Kinda similar to one of my screws that keep the handlebar width in place. Which is by the way sometimes cracking a bit

Is the angle of the garmin similar with the new mount?

The Garmin is much closer to horizontal with the new one :)

Anyone know if I need to get shorter bolt for the rear caliper if I remove the spacer for 160mm to use 140mm rotor?
