The only thing I've changed so far is are the Askium wheels with Aksion tyres ( which really are not to be recommended ) to Kysrium Elite and Hutchinson tyres, the brake hoods to red and the saddle to a Super Leggera Aspide triming the all up weight down to 7,1kg. I've already ridden up the Ventoux and the twin sister of the Ventoux the Signale de Lurs in faster times than 10 years ago. Waiting for a pair of WIZI carbon wheels shod with Vittoria tubs. If you are tempted to buy one all I can say is don't hesistate its better than the bulk of the mid range carbons, extremely responsive and just flies away once you get above 30km/h. Initially I had to get used to the fact that its better to windmill rather than push a high gear, I'm not sure why but the frame does'nt budge at all under load.
