Build Questions: LF Stem/Seatpast/Handlebar suggestions
I am currently in the middle of building my first fixed gear from scratch (was riding just a state core line).
I currently have:
State Black Label Frame w/ Essor Fork
S Plus Son Archetype Wheelset
Sram Omnium Cranks
I was looking into Cinelli Vai Stem/Post/Drop bars but was curious if anyone had other suggestions for the build.

Whatever you find on Craig's list for cheap.
I got Cannondale stem, bars and seat post for $50.
They were take off from a new bike he was replacing everything with ENVE parts.

Sounds pretty lucky. I unfornunately don't really live around a big cycling community so people upgrading and parting off old stuff is pretty scarce. Probably going to be buying stuff new.
The Vai stem is 175 grams $36
Vai Seatpost is 250 grams $36
Vai Handlebars are 330 grams $44
I was also looking at the Cinelli Dinamo stem and bars, but they're 84 each. But the Bars only weigh 185g. The stem only weights 100 g

It's no use having the lightest bike if you can't ride it.
My 2 cents.
