Ti10x redux

I've fancied a fixie / single-speed bike for quite a while. Then I got lucky on a White Industries-hubbed wheelset on eBay, and TiENO.lite was born.

Round about the same time, I bought a Litespeed Ultimate frameset. So the original Litespeed Tuscany frame has gone over to TiENO.lite, and Ti10x is getting a frame transplant.


Here's what was included:
 - Litespeed Ultimate frame - size 59 (seatpost tube 57cm C-C, 61cm C-T)
 - Litespeed titanium seatpost clamp
 - Real Design HP Pro carbon fork
 - Real Design stem cap and bolt (just guessing, but I presume the star nut is also probably Real Design)
 - Cane Creek IS6 headset
 - Cane Creek Interlok stem spacers (5+5+3=13mm) = 4.9g
 - Ritchey WCS alloy stem (31.8mm x 12cm) = 112.7g
 - Ritchey WCS Carbon seatpost (31.6mm) = 174.7g
 - Selle Italia saddle, carbon fibre base, Vanox rails = 204.4g
 - 4 x bottle cage bolts = 13.3g

  The frame, headset, fork with star nut, stem cap with bolt, and seatpost clamp weigh 2148g.
