In other news, building up a Langster Pro 2016 to replace the Dolan.
My bike stable seems to be changing over to Specialized, with now an S Works Venge, Allez Sprint, Transition comp TT, and now a Langster.
Basically the same geometry which suits me well and aero shape but for different purposes.
For posterity, as no one on the internet seems to know the Langster Pro’s weight:
49cm frame: 1667g
Cut down fork: 573g!!!
Seatpost collar: 32g
Cut down seatpost 181g
Headset bearings and dust cover: 52g
Plan is to pair with the Alpina Wing TT drilled fork (367g) to max out the aero, and make an aeroish fixed hill climb/TT/track bike.
Build to include:
Silver 48t omnium
Hylix carbon bullhorns
Vision TT brake lever
Giant SLR carbon stem/or Deda Superleggero/Ritchey WCS
Planet X CNC front brake or Tririg Omega
Will use the novatec x openpro fixed wheels for now, with fixed wheelset advice welcome.
