Awesome Bud. But keep the bar-tape Black.

 

 

Rule # 8

 

// Saddles, bars, and tires shall be carefully matched.3

Valid options are:

 

Match the saddle to the bars and the tires to black; or

Match the bars to the color of the frame at the top of the head tube and the saddle to the color of the frame at the top of the seat tube and the tires to the color where they come closest to the frame; or

Match the saddle and the bars to the frame decals; or

Black, black, black

6.4 ish

 

Seeriaas? I would've thought about 7 kilos seeing it looks like a large frame. Venge aint so heavy after all.

Are you sure? Must be the lightest venge in the world

 

I'd say 6.6 to 6.7...he is running Zipp 202 wheels, and I assume the speedplay zero titanium pedals? Rest of the parts is quite light also

BB30 crank and bearings - 100g saving over gxp

Zipp SL stem and SLC hbar - very light combo compared to my previous setup saved 150 grams here.

Calipers - Zero Gravity carbon 120g for the pair. Std red calipers are 260g

Saddle: 115g

Red makes one of the lightest FD, RD and shifters as well.

Bar tape matched to frame decals - The Manx missile makes the Velominati proud.

My reply was in response to DMC007. I see your Spez saddle is black and white so yes your setup is acceptable.
