Thank you for watching,

Cane Creek eeBrake +HED Black wheels = 👌👌👌
This is a great upgrade! Often allows wider tyres than 28mm. Either way, a classy upgrade!
28mm do fit the Ultimate rim brake edition - I run 30s (very tight clearance though).
it becomes a question of tyre clearance in terms of frame and fork I suppose
The disc brake version can easily fit 32s (or some 33s)! I use mine as a gravel bike occasionally.
I run 32's with my EE's on a 21mm int rim
Wow lovely upgrade Frederico.. They are awesome build quality and super light 😊❤ congrats on the purchase.. 🚴🏻👍 Pete
Beauty of an upgrade!! 👊
with such a light bike you're going to have to enter the Swain's Lane Urban Hill Climb in London!
Will still gas out at 1/3 or the route 🤣
OH Frederico THOSE shorts they bedazzle everything you said and showed
Breaking the Law, take that UCI. CC products are impressive, enjoy.
Bought 2bd hand Specialised allez 195 sh etc an upgrade for me after bad cycling accident 2918, 2929 broke olecronon off, life changing but am back CYCLE SAFDLY CYCLE MINDFULLY
Lovely videos making sense of this bike nonsense, clear position etc great.
Big fingers typos 105 sh
It’s been amazing to join you on this journey. To think you started your weight wheenie journey with a smaller saddle bag and now here we are under 6.8 WITHOUT pedals and computer mount! I’m contemplating what bike to add to my stable next now that I’ve had my alloy gravel bike for a while and added a commuter/mtb ebike recently. Definitely needs to be a full on carbon road bike but the decision between light weight or aero is hard! Even if it’s only a couple hundred grams or under 1 kg difference. I’ve never rode up mountains and everything within 60 miles is just rolling terrain but I still dream of taking a bike to the mountains nearby one day
@@Millicente thank you for remembering the earlier videos! We are at 6.75 including pedals, cages and mount 😀. Aero or lightweight, you need both!
@@fede1275 Yes my fear is that one day I will inevitably have both. People already ask "why do you have more than 1 bike?"
@@Millicente n + 1 😂
Just think where you would be if you upgraded to dura-ace, sub 6.5! And you could get a set of Berd dyneema laced wheels. Maybe 6.3 K
@@jayobannon5359 I know! It's still a reasonable spec, maybe only the brakes and the seatpost can be considered weight weenies components
Nice upgrades❤
Mama mia illegale bicicletta 🤌🏻🤌🏻
I love the mechanical action of those new brakes Federico they are very sweet....beautifully engineered.
It's great to have something on the bike that is such a work of art it draws the eye as you walk past. Very rewarding. Next time you change the steering head bearings, or maybe on the next wet day, pop the seals off and pack them really full of grease b4 you refit the seals. There is so very very little movement in them that heavy heavy grease load doesn't matter. Will greatly extend the life....
You are right. I use Acros grease that they send with the bearings, but I should re-grease more often
@@fede1275 Try marine grease on the headset, it doesn't slow you down but does help to waterproof the bearings.
2:36 I'd like to ask you what model of Winspace wheels you have here. I can't find any model of them where they look like yours with those textured brake tracks.
@@mikeh6286 they are the Lun Hyper R45 23 SE
@@fede1275 Thank you, sir!
Can we talk about the bike no TH-camrs are talking about??

@@danc1829 just saw that, really happy for the news!!
@@fede1275 indeed more brands should offer us a choice!
@@danc1829 now we just need more groupset choice
Excellent quality rim brakes, you have entered the UCI watch list.
Nope, not for me. Campagnolo rim calipers in the shinny aluminum has more bling factor than anything else.
I know, but they are not much lighter than similar ones. These are featherweight
@@fede1275 I might add that I got over my obsession about weight a long time ago. I realized that light weight components have decreased durability and are certainly not worth more money than better built heavier components. For instance, 105 is better than Dura-Ace. But there are still many people who think they can buy speed and that's why the lighter stuff exists. I'm in my 60s and speed isn't important to me anymore, but riding still is and I need a bike that will work when I want to ride it.
Use TPU inner tyres to lose another 200g 😁
@@ArminFejzic already done!
Nice ! I wanted to say you can loose weight with TPU tubes, but you already have them !
Love them! They also run much faster than butyl
@@fede1275 Ha ? You think you have more speed with them ? How that is possible ?
@@chrisdelaplante5515 tpu have a lower rolling resistance, similar to latex tubes. It's quite noticeable when moving from butyl tubes
@@fede1275 Yep, i have tpu also, i feel like it's more dynamic but i didn't know it' was faster ! I'm happy you tell me that !
You’re a very wise man, Federico.
The bike looks amazing Fede, you’ve created a one man arms race amongst your fleet of bikes . I don’t own a bike that weighs less than 8.5 kg 😂 well actually I’m not even sure as I’ve never weighed my fleet of bikes . I reckon you could get it down to 6.5kg chapeau 👍🏽💪🏾
I know, it will ride on its own in a while 🤣
I've been to Echelon Cycles in NY.... great bike shop, felt like a kid in a candy store
So nice to see such a great display
They really are a master piece! mega weight savings!
Really beautiful!!
If you can find a set of the previous generation dura-ace 9000 levers 2nd hand you can drop another 140gr. The crank is good because it can't crack, but you can drop weight by using duraace/ultegra chainrings on it (from a cracked crank perhaps - cheap😊). Also you'll be able to shift much more confidently than on a third party chainring. The handlebars can be swapped to lose an insane amount of weight. Maybe up to 250gr, if you try bontrager xxx or pardus variants (bars +stem = 220gr, and the price isn't crazy like with Darimo.) Hey, you still aren't riding Campagnolo Bora Red brake pads and so you're definitely losing around 20-30% of brake force. Sure they might be a smidge tougher on the rims but rims last tens of thousands of kilometers anyway.
Great advice, I was looking at DA levers before splashing out on the brakes! Braking with the Winspace pads is great, but I always wanted to try the Campagnolo red ones. For Canyon there is a little less choice for the bars, due to the 1 1/4 steerer, but I could find something later on
@@fede1275 Definitely worth to experiment with the brake pads, leads to a huge difference in quality of braking. I would also highly recommend switching your outers to something like Jaqwire elite link cable housing for the brakes. Having ridden those EE brakes, they work much better with a flexible housing because the need the entry angle of the brake cable to be at a very precise point to work at the optimal level. (Also this 'link' outer is lighter by like 50-100g than standard.)
@@fede1275 I noticed you have an inline barrel adjuster for the FD...next time you replace the outer cable, you could lose that as tension adjustment screw on the derailleur now ;)
@@matanhale marginal gains!
@@fede1275 Cool! Bad luck on the steerer thing. 31.6mm is indeed unusual.
Ciaooo! Time to rock the rim brakes and leave everyone in the dust’a 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻
Nice upgrade. I’m in mental torment atm. I’ve seen a v nice preowned Aethos in my size. Help me. 🫣
