Also, my rim brake bike project is getting closer to completion. Yesterday my Parcours Grimpeur wheelset arrived – under 1300g at 41mm rim height with modern rim dimensions, great. I put some lightweight TPU tubes in and 28mm Continental GP5000 non-tubeless versions. The goal is to have a bike that I can ride anytime without thinking about electronics or dried sealant, so tubes + fully mechanical Dura Ace is the way. I have my Dura Ace 9100 groupset ready, aside from still waiting for my Cybrei crankset to arrive, and the bike will be shipped from Ireland tomorrow. I hope it arrives early last week so I can have it all set up before I leave for Mallorca next week's Saturday. Should be fun to ride the mountains with a 6kg bike. I will post pictures when it is finished.
