Still have to clear over it. Can't wait to ride this thing. First ever "nice" wheelset. Previously only has hand me down wheel hybrid wheels on tiagra hubs. Onto the specs:

Frame: 50CM RB-1
Fork: Origin 8 1in threadless carbon
Headset: Origin 8
Wheels: Velocity A23 rims, Sapim xray spokes, custom Orbwheels hubs (1450g without skewers)
Tires: Panaracer Gravel king 700x28
Group: Mishmash of 105 brifters, 105 FD and Tiagra RD, SRAM 1070 11-34, Shimano GRX 30-46 crankset
Brakes Tektro something or other
Misc: Ksport Combo mount for Garmin/lights
1992 Bridgestone RB-1
cool build- you made it your own and spec'd it for riding how you want/need. No shame in that.
