Replaced the stock Andel crankarms on my Wabi Lightning with the Sugino 75 takeoffs from my Bianchi Super Pista Concept when I installed the New Sugino 75 DD crankset. Also installed a TangeSeiki sealed cartridge BB instead of the old Sugino 75 unsealed BB. In addition to looking much better, the Wabi dropped 0.2 lbs, and now weighs an even 15 lbs. I also replaced the old Shimano PD-7401 pedals on the Dolan Pre Cursa with some new Genetic Syngenic pedals that are about 1/4 lbs lighter and include a tension release force indicator. The Pre Cursa now weighs 18.5 lbs, which is exactly the same as my 2011 khaki Soma Rush.

No. I just installed it clean and dry, and tightened the piss out of it by putting the tool in my bench vise and using the frame as a giant lever.

Stem doesn't look too long, the bullhorns look kinda short tho, or maybe they're chopped drops

I cut down the horns from my Wabi like that when I put them on my Vilano, and ruined them in the process. I found out that there wasn't enough room even for my small hands, so they had nothing to hold onto. Big mistake.
