Mega311: If i could have justified the extra money, I probably would have exactly the same build as that. Maybe except the tires, as I don't know Bontrager tires at all. Good to see.

Here's my new frame, the S3 Olympic limited edition.

I got it today after upgrading my S2 replaced under warranty.

It sports a DA 7800 crankset, and otherwise an Ultegra SL groupset.

I'll consider painting the black fork white, but I kind of like the salt & pepper look the bike has now.

sweet S3. it must be cool to have a frame that you rarely see. i've only seen one and that was at my lbs.

Got to have the legs as well as the bucks to ride that paint scheme, I don't have either!

 What size frame and seat do you have? Love the color scheme you have going with the wheels!

 Hi Ouyang, nice bike.

By the way, from the background Map, it seems to be you are located around a very nice trail.

I have the same bike to yours @wangsanegara ;) 

I bought a month ago the 2009 model R3 and I have the same FFWD wheelset. I have a SRAM RED group and it weights 5,9 kg without pedals. What weight is yours?

Hi Marko,

Mine weight approximately 6.4kg, includes pedal, sensors, wheel magnets, and bidon.

The setup really climbs like a mountain goat...

Bontrager makes decent tires. Those that I have on there now are my training tires. They are triple puncture, non-foldable, and pretty heavy. I am hoping they last many miles. Thanks for the comment!

I bought a set of Bontrager tires once, and I could not ride them at all.  The center of the tire was raised up like 2mm 3mm wide, and when I leaned over in a turn it felt like I was falling off of a tectonic plate or something.   It was horrible.  Thankfully the LBS took them back after 50 miles, and I got the Krylions I really wanted that they were out of.

Mine weight 6,8kg including Campi Record, pédals and aluminium wheels (Mavic ES).

I'm awaiting for a pair of carbon wheels and I expected to arrive about at 6,4kg

 Mine is 7.5 kg.... I cannot figure out why though... I have full red... anybody with a similar set getting 7.5kg? ... my pic is posted above...

 Seat -> SLR =- 100g, to AX Lightness = -180g

Wheel= EA ~1700g ->  any 1400g pairs like Hed (or tubulars) =-300g

Your tyres must be heavy -> Michelin Pro 3 Race

Brakes to Zero Gravity= -70g

Chain to Record 10s -20g, Cranks to Record -70g 

Pedals? What model? Any Speedplay cuts bit.

 I build lot of light Cervelo's... 

My 2008 SLC with Sram Red and clincher wheels comes in at around 6200g's give or take a bit. 7500g is pretty heavy with Sram Red so I would guess your wheels are tanks.

I actually think that my P2K that I am building up will be about 7500g's when completed.
