Did you have any trouble getting the chainring to fit? Did you have to get Fibrelyte to make it specifically for the red cranks

came back for the updates! I reckon you will save at least 100/150g if you strip the frameset raw carbon and just clear it.
Would be awesome to get to low 4s. Keep it up!

The parts that I have on order listed below, will drop the bike below 10lbs.
Russian Raketa rear hub: 100g savings
Darimo seatpost clamp: 20g savings
Carbon/alu cog: god knows
Bbinfinite GXP BB: 30g savings
Estimated total weigh savings: 150g / .33 lbs

Those integrated berk components are so sick, I love the seatpost/saddle so much

Nice build, looking to base a build around the same frame, this is really helpful. A long term project due to funds! Want a light hill climbing bike. Will watch as your bike evolves, nice wheel-set......

I think it can be lighter by using smaller cog and lower rims and so on.....

I’m well aware....I could save ~150g using a shallower rim/lighter rear hub, but I really like this Corima set. A smaller cog would save a few grams, which isn’t really a concern of mine at this point.

What're you planning on replacing the wheels with?
Posted over 7 years ago
I have my sight set on some Lightweights. But only if I can sell the Corimas.

Please, remove that slack on the chain, my eyes are bleeding when I look at this.
So extraordinary bike with such a bloomer.

Wow man that's light, I'd be scared of hitting a bump and flying to outer space

do you reckon you could go down 5kg? If yes, what's in your mind?
Posted almost 8 years ago
It would be pretty simple, if I were to switch to road crank & a 3/32 chain/cog. I'm working on getting a clavicula in the near future. But for now, it's light enough! (Almost too light)

ahah yeah definitively, I wish I could 'feel' what 5.1kg means!
keep it real

Super sick even if I'm sure you can go under 5kg
Posted almost 8 years ago
Thanks! Oh yeah, swapping the crank and using a 3/32 setup would do the trick. But it's light enough for now :)

That bar/stem combo is soooo slick, especially with the matching seat post/saddle combo. Well done

Smaller chainring, smaller cog and less chain links could save some more weight :)

Mack Superlight hubs to AX Lightness or Lightweight rims and a custom carbon Fiber
-Lyte ring on THM Clavicula or Lightning cranks would take this over the top.

I agree, I currently have a fiberlyte ring on the bike. And I'm in the process of getting a clavicula!

I decided to have a custom carbon spider built for the rotor. THM will be a upgrade down the line.
Posted about 8 years ago
I have Clavicula cranks on my road bike. So much stiffer and lighter than the newest Rotor 3D+ cranks. The price is hard to stomach but the performance and weight savings is worth the extra $500 or so.

Fuck me and jesus christ, this is the meanest thing I've seen!

Haha yeah, once I figure out the most comfy stem position, I'll cut it properly.
