Just wanted to share my rather light Roubaix Team Edition Build (size 57). I know this is a very high end build, but there might be a thing or two to derive from that:
Cervelo P5 Disc (2021) 9.1kg
Factor Ostro Gravel (2023) 8.0kg
S-Works SL8 (2023) 6.3kg
*weights are race ready, size 58/L.

if I can change the rear cassette + crank + chainwheel + full carbon saddle based on what has been suggested above I should be able to go to 7.3kg

Bleko - cheers. The seatpost is the Darimo T1 Loop for Tarmac SL6. Comfort was much better than expected and it at 115g for the 450mm one.

Nice bike.bleko wrote: ↑Thu Apr 08, 2021 6:27 pmDear All,
I am riding the Roubaix 2020 for already 2 months. Coming from a Scott Foil that I rode for 3 years, I just love it, it's night and day. Extremely comfortable in all situations - quick - responsive. Anyway, the purpose of my post is of course about weight
When I bought it it was 8.3KG and now 7.85kg i'd like to reach 7.4kg with this bike. If you ask me why, I will be honest, just for the fun of for now, i like to tweak things.
For now, I replaced most of the screws with titanium one / carbon cockpit/carbon ronin Evo pro saddle + durace rotors (160 front / 140 back) + light inner tubes (might go tubeless soon).
I think now the biggest improvement I could get would be by replacing the crankset / chain wheel + rear cassette. I do not want to change the groupset since I didn't buy the higher-end model of this bike because I didn't want a SRAM groupset (didn't like the individual battery system - wireless). Maybe also change the bottom bracket? For rotors was looking at carbon-ti one but with the adapter + screws would be like the durace.
I run 11-34 on the rear and 50-34 on the front (standard ultegra di2 setup).
Would you have any suggestion for a light chain wheel/crankset (carbon) and lighter option for the rear cassette? i guess I could save up 350/400 grams going that way...
Thanks you all for your suggestions

Not sure if I missed it - in terms of 11-34 cassettes I think there are 2 main options:
- ZTTO, not expensive, larger cogs are aluminum. Mine weighed about 220 grams. Coming from 11-32 Red, shifting is fine.
- I think Sroad has a full steel 11-34 cassette with a weight similar to ZTTO; it's more expensive, but still not bad (similar price to Ultegra). I would if opted for this if I would have known before getting the ZTTO.
This seems an awesome upgrade. Was it more comfortable than the Pave one ?FlatlandClimber wrote: ↑Fri Apr 09, 2021 6:52 pmBleko - cheers. The seatpost is the Darimo T1 Loop for Tarmac SL6. Comfort was much better than expected and it at 115g for the 450mm one.

No, not more comfortable. However, the Pavé is very comfortable, so the Darimo Loop not being a lot harsher is actually quite a complement to it!
