    Out of interest, what brake outer system is that you've used?
    Nokon. Fiddly to install, and not the absolute lightest available, but IMO more robust than some of the alternatives while lighter (and less compressible) than standard outers. I've also stuck with standard brake cables rather than Powercordz or Ti cables, on safety grounds. Note that Shimano high-end (coated) cables don't work well with Nokon; just use a good-quality standard stainless cable.

    I managed to pick up a set of the Alligator i-Links having not really been able to find much else really, mostly because my supersix needs some funny shape cable to run the EE calipers that standard outer can't handle.

    Great build though, It's been a bit of an inspiration for my re-build and whether to go for weight-weenie wheels or keep aero.
