Hi all well iv'e got a sweet pinarello but every time i ride it a bone spur flairs up in my shoulder.
But riding mtb's is fine so i set about building my version of the ultimate hybrid it weigh's 8kg even with new brakes hoping for sub 8.
She's sweet to ride keeps up with a pack for roadies and takes alot of punishment on rough city bike path's hope you like it.

It's awright.

Love the corrugated iron in the second pic. In Straya, we don't need no stinkin' white roller door as a background.

8 kilos??
That is insanely light for a hybrid! ^^
Can you give a partlist of that thing?

jbchybridrider 

Sure thing mate.
JBC carbon mtb frame 1030grams without rear deralier 995grams.
Karbona carbon cyclocross forks 410mm axle to crown (lucky find)
Spinergy 29er wheels.
Schwalbe ultremo r1 tryes.
FSA energy 50-34 compact road crank.
Ultegra derailer.
Xpedo Ti pedals.
XTR Ti 11-32 cassette.
XT rear deralier.
XTR chain.
Ceramic bearing jockey wheels and bottom bracket.
XT disc rotor's.
Shimano M-575 brakes soon to be replaced with XT or XTR calipers to go with my XT duel control leaver's.
FSA k-force carbon bar's and stem.
SDG carbon I-beam seat and post.
FSA campy style headset.
Must say the front deralier is only on for the pic's i've ridden 5 to 600km without it, the chain's never come off.
I'm waiting to find good second hand XT or XTR brake caliper's or set so i can set it up with my XT duel control shifter's.
I know it will work because there's enough of outward swing on the deralier.
I'll get around to more detailed pic's to show the frame quality soon it's fantastic.

Mate i've gota sctatch my head hard looking for a good photo spot where i live.

Darn pic's went everywhere****

What a mess!

Incredible bike!
Glad to see another full custom hybrid
What did you pay for all that?
One more thing you could do is get a second wheelset with some nice cyclocross tyres for heavier offroad use as those ultremo's wont get you far in those conditions.

It's probably the nicest bike posted in the hybrid forum thus far. You obviously know a lot about bikes and have put together an awesome ride. It would look a little better with the tire logos lined up with the valve stems. Not just for appearance, if you get puncture it will be easier to know where to look in the casing for the cause. Find hole in inner tube first then go to that place in the tire to find and remove the piece of glass/thorn/staple/etc. Unless those are tubeless tires, if so, nevermind.

noice

Let's just say it cost a ****load of money but building and tinkering is a hobby of mine.
I do have a set of continental double fighters from my scott sportster but the first time i ever road that bike i got a puncture and took them off.
I'm really just a road rider and citylink pathway rider the ultrmo's have been fantastic.
I've had smartarse roadie's tailing me on pathway's and come across path works where it's all ripped up. I just power on while they have to walk.
We hybrid rider's have it good dont we.

jbchybridrider 

Good thinking never thought of that, all fixed now
They have standard tube's.
Might be be worth getting a puncture proof solution aswell. I've never had a puncture with these tyre's but i'm sure it'll happen oneday.

AdelaaR

Oww yeah
I still have to meet the first roadie that passes me solo ... and I ride in "De Vlaamse Ardennen" which is sort of a Mekka for roadrace cycling since it has all of the infamous hills of "De Ronde Van Vlaanderen". "De Kapelmuur" is about 7 miles from my house for instance.
So I encounter at least a few roadies on every ride and the best they ever seem to do is keep up unless they are in a group and have cars with logo's next to them ... I have to admit that keeping up with those 20-year-old semi-pro's isn't an option for an amateur like me.
I sometimes even pass them while riding with my dog!
My dog is 5 years old and can average about 18 mph on hilly terrain for about 4 miles ... he goes faster uphill than downhill which is typical for dogs.

In adelaide we have the tour down under the first pro tour event of the year.
It doesent have the history of european event's and probably never will but a fantastic event anyway.
It's great for me because they train mostly along the coast road's two to three weeks before the event and get to ride with them.
They ride gentle enough when not racing to let me stay with them (for a bit anyway maybe 2km) You should see there face's when they see my bike think there impressed
And yeah alot of roadie's are just tosser's have you seen that weight weenie's site there way to serious i'm afraid if i post there they'll sacrific me

AdelaaR

You seem to have a long cage rear derailleur there.
With a compact crank, couldn't you run a short cage and shift smoother?
Also ... an 11-32 has a pretty big range and high intervals ... if you do not ever use your 34/32 lowest gear my advice is to get an 11-28 or maybe even an 11-25 or something and gain additional ratio's.
Depends on how big the hills in your area are ofcourse.
Hills around here a pretty steep and so I run a 30-42-52 with 11-23 for roads or 11-28 when going ofroad.

jbchybridrider 

Aggreed ratio gap's and changing speed are slow comparative to a road bike.
I did think about what your suggesting, i'm sure i needed a spacer behind the cassette because it's a mtb (135mm axle) wheel i'll have to research the topic again to know what i'm talking about.
Plus i already had the deralier from my sportster so kept everything in the mtb family, you've got me thinking again though. More money $$$

AdelaaR

You should be able to simply change the cassette without spacers as long as you keep the same amount of coggs.
Could just leave it as it is ofcourse but I know you like tinkering and customizing like I do
