Here's a temporary upgrade, in the form of Mavic R-Sys fancy-pants lightweight wheelset with
carbon spokes. The front wheel weighs 589 g while the rear one tips the scales at 814 grams.
Continental Supersonic ultra-light inner tyres for minimum rotational mass, at only 50 g each!
And finally, to maximize the weight saving - a set of KCNC quick-release skewers, weighing only
45 g for the pair.
In total, this wheelset shaved exactly 450 grams off of the bike, as compared to Ultegra setup,
totaling at 6800 grams - which happens to be on the bring of the UCI 6.8 kg weight limit :-).
Strangely, I like the contrast of the silver rims against the matte black frameset.
A photo with my lightest bike so far, while I could - as I had afterwards sold the Mavic R-Sys
wheelset together with my ex Scott CR1.
