Frame weight with headset and BB bearings. Looks like my frame is one of those heavier outliers!
Massive, ugly and heavy conical spacer/dust cover (replacing with a much thinner one).
I have a Hoff carbon replacement coming to replace this frame bung.
Medium cage, will replace with lighter short cage.
Brake cable inners and outers were heavier than I thought. Not going to go those weenie link ones though as I absolutely hate how they look.
Extralite 120mm -6. Was on sale so I pulled the trigger on it, but would have preffered a 110mm -12. Will have to see how it fits (and looks).
ZTTO gen 3 11-28 cassette. So light!
Berk Lipa, was also on sale otherwise would have gotten another Lupina short.
Rode in the rain the other day (Allez Sprint) and now I see why so many people seem to have a “winter bike”. The drivetrain is full of sand, and oil from the road has now contaminated my disc brakes (they now make a deafeningly loud squeal!). Spent some good time cleaning up the drivetrain, bought some brake cleaner for the brakes, might avoid riding in the rain from now on.
Weather has been absolutely crap lately (I’m getting anxiety from not being able to go out and ride!). Perfect weather to be building up a bike, except I’m still waiting for so many parts. I thought I’d at least take everything off the frame in preparation.
