  • my current wheelset weighs in at 1480 with no tyres or skewers. Superstarcomponents volta hubs on pacenti sl23 rims with zipp skewers. Really solid wheels and happy with them. cheap too! got em for £160 brand new. They're doing a lot of wheelsets at the moment with 25% discounts.
    challenge stradas are 380g each or something

  • My CAAD10 disk sits at 8.2kg

    I honestly couldn't care less - I had it up Hardknott, Wrynose and The Struggle back to back at the weekend and it reinvigorated my love of the bike after pretty much loving/hating it since new.
    It also turns out, if you smash your bike up 30%+ hills, it stops the BB creaking.
    And:

    (Mavic Aksium Disc + CX77) > (Zipp 303 + DA BR-9000)

    when descending like a motherfucker.

  • (Mavic Aksium Disc + CX77) > (Zipp 303 + DA BR-9000)

    TAKE THAT BACK

  • realised my BB creak was due to the rear QR. feel like I have been living a lie for years!! still pondering wheel options for mine though, then it is done

  • I had it up Hardknott, Wrynose and The Struggle.

    Gotta says, fucking chapeau for this, the passes are no easy feat.

    Also got me thinking, what gearing were you running? I forgetting that the gearing alone make a bigger difference than losing 500g.
