Since corona got in the way of a 3 months long trip I had the money to start a new project.
I found this Klein Quantum Pro XX in the color scheme Sunburst (I'm guessing).
I don't know which year the frame is from exactly but I'm guessing early 2000's?

The frame is in excellent condition! The only thing I have been able to find is a chip in the paint from the front mech clamp.

The initial idea was to do an all american build, since I already have a SRAM Red 10s group set.
However, I got a very good deal on a pair of Mavic Cosmic Carbon SLE with black decals that I couldn't pass. They will be here tomorrow.

A few thoughts on the build going forward:
Black finishing kit as this would match the frame better than silver.
I would like to go sub 7kgs on this build if possible.
Still in doubt whether or not to keep as many as the parts american as possible.

If you have any thoughts or suggestions on the set-up I would like to hear them.

Cheers!

So the wheels came with the mail today.

I also snagged a Ritchey WCS seatpost

I'm looking for a matching stem and handlebars, so if you have someting feel free to shoot me a PM.
Or if you have any ideas regarding the build please feel free to share!

Checkout the Retrobike forum, you'll probably find og klein part for sale.

You should be able to use the serial number on the frame to identify the year.

Best color you can get on these. Looks spectaculair! I think someone on the weight weenies forum did a super lightweight build with one of these.

Imagine going to all that hassle and ending up with that stem/spacer combo.

Making those frames fit anyone is tricky so I think that's a concession.

My pre-trek fits but it's a low missile when you tuck.

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
