Weight Weenies

Maybe this is the wrong thread to ask this, but does anyone know if the 3D printed SL7-Stem adapter that most people are using here would work on a bike that has an FSA ACR SMR (So only 2 cables, which go in front of the round steerer into the frame) headset?

I`m looking for options for my Merida Scultura...

Hard to say if the cover would rest on an ACR split ring properly. Specialized is using 40.5ID/49.7OD bearings while ACR is 40.0OD/51.8OD.

Ah I see. Thanks for your help.

Hi guys, question!

On my specialized allez sprint 2016(rim brake bb30) i had a 105 crankset and now i bought a Rotor Flow crankset.

What spacers do i need to fit the rotor crank? It seems very wide.

Thanks!

If you go to rotoramerica.com and look under "resources", "tech support" then "crank support" and "bottom bracket compatibility and spacer chart" under bb30 it says for the 3D+/Flow it looks like you'll need a .5mm and 11.5mm on drive side and another 11.5mm on the non-drive side

I want to upgrade my old 2017 rim brake allez to sram axs.
Does anyone know if there is any covers for the shifter cable?

https://webshop.bestbike.de/us/speciali ... ransi.html

I have something similar to those on the bike currently. Is there any with no hole?

I received the spacers and put them by the chart

There's way too much play in the bb between the 2 crank arms(can't ajust even with the preload spacer)

If i shim the gap, i have to put more shims on the drive side, if not the chain is rubbing on the big chain ring when its on the small one

After ading more spacers on the drive side, everything is working but when im on the small freehub cog and i shift from the big front chainring to the small one the chain shifts in between and get stuck

I have sram red 10s groupset

It's possible... You will probably need to edit the STL file tho and tinker around with it

I wonder if the new Roval Rapide integrated bar will fit the latest sprint (or even the older model).

Based on that photo... I don't see why it wouldn't.

Figured I’d throw mine up here. I still have the original rim brake which I still love but I have to say that the new one is smoother, faster, and has a better bb system for sure. I also have an SL7 non-sworks with Da mechanical and apart from climbing over 7% I’d have to say that this might even be faster. Love it, great bike

Bike looks good super clean. Just an fyi get rid of saddle bag or misc crap on photo day. This is weight weenies after all where looks are as important as weight.

Is there anyone out there, who has done more than 10-15k kms on their rimbrake Allez Sprint? How do you like it after riding it for so long?
