I tried an SLR C64 on my road bike for a while, wasn't uncomfy, but was bloody slippery, felt very strange, couldn't really get on with it.

Yeah no wear your coming from I've got a swede seat cover and light para cord so can easy put on and take off.

Another part arrived and fitted. Xtr front mech and a light weight stem cap,
With the above and the kcnc ti qr's seat clamp my new weight is.








That's the build finished now overall well happy with the upgrades and the weight, it does ride well
Thanks for all your comments good and bad that's wot these forums are for.
Seen my next project will be a frame upgrade :roll:

Good choice on the MtZoom Stem cap!
I have one, and one of their Seat Clamps, also the KCNC skewers, I am forever looking at more trinkets to buy and bolt on!

Looks good! You need to take that sticker off the front mech though!

Now you just need to ride it!

5 pages of posting tinkering weight reducing upgrades and the only picture of you riding it was helmet less on an unmade road! And now you are selling it?! Not sure whether I should or

njee20

That was my point!

Are you building a cyclocross bike? Lighter, quicker on that sort of terrain. Seems to make sense!

That pic was testing the ride over 30 mile that day, the pic taken there was due to one of the other lads hanging out.
