The saddle and stem is from my old bike which was way to big - hence the super forward saddle. I've put a different saddle on now (still an Arione but with Kium rails instead of Manganese). When putting the cassette together, I didn't have the right size spacers to do it according to the manual and it doesn't shift properly in the big sprockets, so it looks like a trip to Condor tomorrow to pick some up. Still plenty of tinkering to do. Comes in at 8.4kg with the cheap Khamsins, so should be about 7.9kg when the nice wheels arrive.
I'm off for a spin!
