Looks spectacular! But how can a XS size rim brake bike with high end components be so heavy?!

Just corrected^ 7.45kg. Still a chonky boy tho. I didn't weight the frame before I built it but I think claimed weight is 1050.

NK1K (as every Cipo) is bloody heavy. I remember that mine bare L frame in matte paintjob weighed around 1300g without any frame hardware.
I doubt even XS sized frame can be under 1kg.

Dam - great build. Got me to save pics of it to my folder of great bikes!

Enjoy the ride !!!!!!!!!!

Lovely looking bike. Agressive and purposeful. I too was a little surprised by the weight, given my XL Cipollini NK1K is down to 7.15kg (with 46mm tubulars though). How do you find the ride?

yeah it's seems heavy, the weight was a bit of a hack on the bathroom scales, so might be a bit off. I'll try and weigh it again next time i see a bike scale, but the frame is hefty and all the frame parts seem really heavy too.

And lol, i actually haven't had the chance to ride it yet, i'm still waiting on a few more tweaks, need a new topbearing cover to slam get the stack down a bit more and waiting on a new set of wheels. Also the weather hasn't been ideal to be testing a new bike so will wait until i can get it out properly as still on the winter bike.

I was planning on waiting to build it for summer but most of the parts were there so decided to play around with it and start.

That looks lovely.

Mine Cipollini NK1K with Campagnolo Chorus 11 speed and tubular wheelset is 6.8 kg weight.

Awesome, looks killer

It looks so good. These xs builds make me wish I was a foot shorter or that there were 750c wheels and frames.

I've spent some more time on the bike and quite happy with it. Doesn't feel too much different than my F10 handling wise, feels a bit more planted when cornering. Definitely noticed that there's a bit more road noise, not crazy, but feels like i'm running 90psi instead of the actual 80psi i'm running.

In terms of the 12s EPS, can't really tell performance wise between 11s, but perhaps the FD changes a little bit quicker. That clunk in the gear changes i was hoping for is absent (similar to campag mechanical and SRAM RED eTAP). I do find the ergos much more comfortable tho.

I tracked down the headset topcap i was chasing to get the stack down lower and changed the wheels to 45m. Finished at 7.21kg without the garmin.
