12 hours of sanding might not......it’s all in the edit mind?

I run a Sramano set up, Sram XO mech/shifter and Shimano 11spd XT cassette/chain. Less cost, less weight, better up shifts under load?

Again....patience, will all be explained? Has to be cleaned to an inch of its life to clear all the sanding debris, then clear coated (I usually use a satin finish) then any decals applied and finished off with an invisiframe kit. My Levo was done in this and has been my winter eeeb, gets a...

Excellent ? I’m signed up for Zermatt & Finale......with a few Southern Enduros to get my eye in?

I putting a spreadsheet together with all these weights but the single biggest thing that jumps out at me is the tube weight.....at 500+ for pair of tubes it’s a no brainer to swap over to tubeless especially as the tape is already fitted so simple job to swap valves and buy some sealant. (for...

No rotors. I’ll weigh both the front and rear, stripped down with no cassette/rotor etc tomorrow.

Close up of the brushed finish.....still little way off but not much.

Slow progress but both rear stays near completion. Been doing some detailed weight comparisons so will post up weight of stock stuff verses final build spec.

And for comparison......Roval Carbon Traverse SL rear wheel with XX1 Eagle cassette. Full weights etc will be in my SL build thread.

Haven’t weighed both wheels but rear Roval alloy wheel with NX 12spd cassette below, no tyre tube. Can do the other/both tomorrow if needed.

I was surprised too but hard to argue with the scales and picture below of bike on new set of Park Tools scales which I’d hope are accurate??‍♂️ Going to check them against shop ones when have a chance.

Raw Alloy Levo - custom spec (tubeless with DMR vaults) Bigger battery negates the full carbon frame weight savings it would seam??‍♂️

S-works Levo - stock (tubeless with DMR Vauts)

Hope to achieve similar result with the Alloy SL. Compared weight on my stock S-Works Levo(nice factory spec obviously and 700 battery) to my Raw finished Alloy Levo with custom spec (500 battery, frame & dropper only stock items, carbon wheels/bars/cranks etc )

And to do it twice.......??‍♂️

Surprised by tube weight

After paint stripping (its a wet paint not powdercoated)

Stripped down alloy frame (pre dipping so no linkage/shock/bearings)

Who wants to get a weight weenie geek on?
