Good insight for super light bike. He should try compete in some of climbing international races like recently the one in uk given he has spent considerable amount of money! Enjoy watching this well done bro!

I believe Corima cork brake pads are lighter, used to have them but sold them when I changed to disc. Using Deda Mistral tape now, 34g for both sides excluding bar end plug. Marginal gains!
@melvintanchannel

Wow 34g tape that is crazy man... Seems like a good upgrade.... Thanks for the top tip

Light bikes aren't for everybody. Any bike that weighs less than 7 kg is too light for me (I almost lost control when I pedaled out of the saddle on a customer rim-braked Scott Foil I was working on as I had no idea it was this light) as I'm very accustomed to my 9+ kg road bike, 10+ when loaded for a ride, I started LEKAS 2019 with the bike weighing at 11+, the heaviest it's been. 7 - 8 kg is the lightest I'm willing and content to go for.

You can save tubulars. You need to take out the stitching and patch the tube inside. Tufos are not using latex for their tube, it is butyl. It is easier to replace compared to Corsa Pro or Veloflex Pro Tour Race.

I bring a small bottle of Orange sealant, remove the valve core and squeeze it in when I get a puncture... Works well and save your tire!

Looking at the upgrade, it's hard to believe it cost RM50,000. Either the person was scammed or is not being truthful about the expenses involved.
