I must admit, I did raise an eyebrow at the saddle

Wheelset looks ace. If I was building a bike up they would be my choice too. I like that they don't require taping for tubeless.

It’s coming along, 15.8 pounds as it sits minus 2 rotors, 1 caliper and a chain, thinking it will easily end up around 16.5 once it’s done and the cables and hoses are cut to length and the right stem and spacer stuck arrives. I thought it would be closer to 19 when I was planning.

Awesome and like the LOOK and model decals that many other modern stealth racers have removed.
Please keep that Brooks saddle handy for more eye candy joking and tributes to vintage racers

All that is left is bar tape and a little FD tuning.
