Nice. I like that. Blimey, what wheels were on before if you saved 1.2kg?

What are those black lines on the down tube?

Do you know the total weight of the bike?

Hi the quoted weight is 9.5 kg the original wheels where tigra 32 spoke with alex race rims and maxxis 25 detonator tyres and heavey tubes(excellent bomb proof wheels and use them during the week riding to work ).
The new wheels with continental attack 22 and force 24 and light weight tubes transform the ride and it picks up quicker and holds speed,the flat spokes do make a stange humming noise but apart from that cracking wheels for the money.
The black lines are cable ties holding the cables for speedo and cadense sensor.
Love the bike as not many around and very comfortable on long rides plan .
