i suppose you can say that, but then again, cycling isnt all about getting the cheapest and lightest part, just get whatever you like the look of and fits your budget

Feels like the advertised wiring diagram is kinda false then like how are the wiring supposed to go through the steerer tube.. Also the new bar was/are supposed to be the lightest fully internal routed bar, but if the stem doesn't support internal routing then what light stem did they have in mind for that bar

Because in that price range / weight it is hard to beat the S-works stem without going nuts with Hyperstem.

How dumb/unsafe would it be to drill a small hole near the steerer clamp for hose exit? Something like the Roval Rapide bar.

Recently acquired the super light stem, spot on 118 grams, just as advertised, haven't had the chance to install it yet, it's meant for my new time build, but the finish is slightly different from the renderings seems to be reasonably high quality as well
How did it look when installed? Do you have any pictures?
