Just a couple weeks over a year since I last posted this '78 Kvale, but a lot of water under the bridge since then. Especially this past month...
Found a lighter FSA SLK 4-bolt crabon crank, put on a SRAM XX-1099 11-36t weight-weenie special cassette, and sub'd in a vintage-ish Titec Malone 7075 46mm bar for the Nitto Noodle/48 (250g vs 370g). The Kvale just broke into the very high 18lb range. About all's that's left to go lighter, that I'm comfy with, would be a carbon-railed saddle, so I'm on a slow-boil hunt for a Specialized Toupe Pro 155 in white.
