  Wheels are Giant SLR1 ... not too light but light enough. Keep thinking how much a tubular set would take 500g off but then I’d be afraid to ride it :/

  Some parts changed to lower the weight a little.. a few other parts (skewers/brake callipers) should see sub 7kg.

  Debating if it needs a set of gum wall tyres on it, can’t do any harm can it?

  Beautiful! I asked Ricky for a price but at that point in time I could not justify the expense. He is an artistic genius though!

  This is a nice vid (if it works)

  Had the same problem a few years ago after putting a Cinelli Grammo on my Sarto, played around with stem heights with poor OD of spacer to OD of stem match... have access to lathes so machined down some thick wall tube (or possibly solid bar?) to get it to fit. In the end I had aluminium headset / stainless spacer / Ti stem / stainless spacer / Ti headcap.. surprising the difference in colour of each material even after polishing.

  It worked nicely though

  I’d love that chainring on the 7800 but i don’t think it will fit...

  That Look 381 is a belter!! 🤓 I use a Cervelo S5 from 2011 which is almost eligible but feels far too modern in this post. Good work @Sig_Arlecchino
