Frame - 2002/2003 Orbea Team Euskaltel 54 cm
Wheels - Campagnolo Vento G3 w/ Campagnolo hubs
Cassette - Campagnolo 9 speed 13-23
Tires - Michelin Kromion
Crankset - Truvativ Elita 3.1 - 175 mm - 52/42/30
Pedals - Crankbrothers Quattro (these were ideal since I can use my MTB shoes without swapping cleats)
Fork - Orbea full carbon
Brakes - Campagnolo Veloce
Shift/Brake Levers - Campagnolo Xenon
Headset - Cane Creek Italian IS
Plug - FSA Compression
Bottom Bracket - SRAM GXP
Seatpost - Sette Venn
Front Derailleur - Shimano 105
Rear Derailleur - Campagnolo Mirage
Bottle Cages - Catcage
Drop Bars - Ritchey Pro
Stem - Easton EA30 (110 mm)
Chain - SRAM quick connect
The final tuning of the shifters was performed. Several issues were identified/fixed:
1. The chain was too long and had to be shortened by two links in order for the chain to stop rubbing on the bottom of the derailleur.
2. The rear derailleur indexing was performed by placing on the fourth cog and then rotating the knob until it lined up perfectly with the cog.
3. The seatpost was then adjusted for my height.
4. The GPS/cadence mounts were also moved from the 29r to this bike. The cadence tracking will definitely be needed more for road riding than MTB.
5. Gator Skin chainstay protector was placed on the frame as well as around the headtube for cable rub. If the original owner had placed them on, the frame would look brand new.
After all was finished, the final weight came to slightly over 19 lbs. The crankset, brakes, and the drop bars/stem are heavy. Especially the large three ring crankset. With a few carbon fiber component swaps - seatpost, handlebar, stem, brakes - and a two ring crankset, this bike can probably come in under 18 lbs.
