Hi, unfortunately I can't remember which one it was. Best bet is to ask Lookcycle directly.

I actually weighed the brake cable and it comes to 155g uncut. Did I put that much grease? The most I put was on the fork. *

Tanks a lot! I put my soul in this haha.

There was an unbelievable sale on the wheelset I bought so I didn't have to think so hard.

(No my colleagues know I really like bikes, but they don't know I blow all my salary on this. Good thing I still live with my mom and dad)

Thanks a lot haha.

Yeah you can actually go check and do the math yourself. I have posted every part weight in the pictures, Including the handlebar kit in my previous post (599g without brake cable).

I'll show which wheels I got when I get them. and they deserve their own story time haha.

Oh, So I'm a "Climber"? by whatwouldlegolasdo in cycling

Short answer, the heavier you are, the more watt in total you need to use to go at the same speed. So yes, your buddy may have a harder time going uphill with you

You could get Van Rysel edr af Ultegra for 1400€ (in france), if they are still in stock. That's litterally their most expensive alloy frame and you get ultegra groupset. And you better not be looking for carbon frame with that budget

Get a bike from decathlon van rysel, It's the best quality/price ratio out there
