Thank you all for your comments !
Dont worry for the paint, I will not strip it as of yet, as it takes a lot of time and i'm too busy these days to do it. Maybe i'll like it in the end!
First few modifications came in.
The stupid carbon super record fd cage was a bit damaged and i was scared it would snap while riding so i bought a 'mal functionning' record eps fd, with the metal cage.
I swapped it this morning. It's way easier to swap on the eps than on the mechanical version as there is no spring. The weight penalty is 3 grams, but it will be solid and reliable.
For those wondering, the rest of the fd is the same between record and SR.
fd new weight (w/ bolts) : 134g
I ordered a chinese straight seat post and the infamous 80-ish grams aliexpress saddle to replace the speedneedle (i dont like it that much...).
I also replaced a broken spoke on the rear wheel and put on brand new hoods.
- Is the
ea90 stem any good ?
i havent found any review on the easton ea90 stem. I like it for the computer mount thats looks cool. It weights more than the kalloy but the mount is 12g...
- Somebody knows
yuanan wheels ?
i want a pair of carbon clincher because i miss my 404's. My budget is tight. I want to give a try to 'yuanan' wheels. They are the OEM for elite wheels i think and they seem to know what they are doing.
- I will put on my 3D+/Srm crank after i find a pair of 170mm crank arms. The sale of the super record crankset will give me a bit of money to improve the bike
The weight will go lower eventually but i am sort of keeping my money as i am restoring a range rover classic at the same time...
