UK-Saffa

Its a work in progress, although these wheels will not be a constant feature on this bike, I do like the aggressive look of 88mm wheels on the bike.

Just bought a Supersix to go with my Caad

Little update on my bike. Ultegra has been stripped and is being replaced with Sram Force 22 and a red Crank. New sub 1kg tubulars have been ordered as well. Im hoping that when all done, the bike will be sitting at around 5.977kgs. At least that's what my maths tells me it should be at. Pics to come soon.

'Done' for now. 6.85kgs

Thank you, the hope is to finish as close to 6.8kgs as possible, I think it can be done. I have see smaller frame sizes of this bike built to 6.32kgs, but that's a mark I would not be able to reach.

The disappointment at taking some super nice cages out of a box to find each one cracked in at least 3 places was huge. I have contacted the seller, and so far they have been helpful, I'm hoping they resolve this with little issue.

This has been a work in progress for a long time, after initially getting it and putting tubulars on it and changing some parts I thought I was done, then the weight weenie in me took hold. The bike currently stands at 6.945kgs in 56cm. I still have a couple of changes to come, and will hopefully sneak under the magical 6.8kg mark. I have reverted back to clinchers, and now changed the brake caliper so, saddle, all bolts to Ti, pedals have been changed from keo max to carbon blades with Ti axles. I await delivery of a new lightweight cassette and chain. Sadly my 9gram a piece bottle cages were ruined in delivery, so I'm hoping the seller will send some new ones to me, or I'll be forced to go back to the original bontrager XXX light at 14g a pop.

I am from CPT, living in London. I used to ride 60mm wheels at home, obviously, when the wind was absolutely crazy I'd pack them away.

New wheels arrived today. these will mostly be on my supersix once I finish the build Im working on with it.

Nah, if I put a tape to it, it measures at 170mm, so there are stems longer than 140mm, just rather hard to find.
