few tweaks to looks and will look great
FWIW i'd use black bar tape and black seat and lose the pump/bag and if poss some black cranks add some clipless pedals and your there!

Blimy, if that is bare weight without tubes/tape/tyres/skewers/cassette you are looking at a 3kg plus wheelset. Congrats for having the heaviest wheels on the forum! Seriously you should look at getting something lighter which compliments the frame better. That and new bar tape/saddle. Apart from that I like it!0

That's the normal weight for an average pair of deep section carbon wheels. I don't know why you think it's so heavy!

The bare wheel weights (if that it what is quoted) seemed high to me. Yes, an 88mm deep carbon wheel might weigh a kilo but serves a purpose. What do these wheels have in their favour?0 -

They are an inanimate object serving the simplest possible function, and yet they make people argue with each other. I'd say that's impressive value for money.0 -

What size is the blue one and what do you plan to do with it?
By the way I think the blue one looks well cool: wheels are smart. Black one is going to look pukka as well.Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

Bike is fairly mint. Only done 400 odd miles, a few small chips
Only changing as I am 6ft 2 and it's to small
I guess it will end up on ebay0 -
I had an SL Pro in white. Great bikes. Mine was also the old "classic" logo which, in my opinion, was much better. Very nice. I'm looking forward to seeing this built up.Trying Is The First Step Towards Failure
