I'll take whatever impressions I can get
so far good. I wish they pushed a bit more fluid per stroke length and I wish the clamp was a standard Sram or Shimano clamp or even the trickstuff clamps. Also wish it didn't have the no tool reach adjust as it is unnecessary and adds grams/looks ugly. I also wish the hoses would stay still when you tighten the banjos at the lever especially on the front brake. they are 328g for the set which is S- tier.

Yeah don't get one. That's one area carbon doesn't have an advantage. An UNO ultralight alloy stem is the way to go. Get a set of titanium bolts to cut an additional 10 or so grams.

There's some darimo ix2al replica stems out rn that seem good

Nice find. Is there anyone who has experience with these?
Too thin, 1.5mm is the min and these start and 1.55. id recommend galfer or centerline X

They use SRAM's Level dual pistons caliper style of pads for the LV2, Hope's E4 pads style for the LH4 and the LV4 and Hope's V4 pads style for the LHT Ultimate.

On another note, my bike got stolen last weekend so i won't be able to give more updates to you guys about the LV4... I'm sorry :-\.
They were flawless last time i was able to used them, that's all i can say :'(.

Nearly finished my build.

Final result will come at the end of this week.

Goal sub 7kg will be reached - any tips to save some weight?
a new crankset light a skypivot would be a lot lighter or the new stuff from elilee thats coming out soon (24mm spindle)

Yeah. I'm very interested in your impressions. I also wonder if they perform any better then the other IIIpro or Zoom 910.
I have some of the zrace x2s right now and will only be using the levers (not the calipers) so I can cut some grams so you will not get a review of the calipers but only the iiipro levers with the zrace x2 calipers. The IIIPRO calipers are the same as the zrace 4 pot ones.

On the quest for grams and inspired by 11.11 deals, I purchased the Elita One carbon hardware set for Fox Transfer dropper posts.  The kit comes with titanium hardware as well.

Overall, I am very impressed with the fit and finish of the kit.  I have~250 miles on it on my Transfer SL without issue.  It loosened up once on the first ride with the seat sliding back a bit.  Once tightened, it has been trouble free.

The weight savings is pretty great for the $15.xx purchase price.  34g (15g from Ti bolts, 19g from carbon plates) saved over factory hardware with no discernable downsides.  A recommended weight wienies mod for sure.

I use these as they are lighter on my transfer sl

Hose routing to the levers appears to require a handlebar that supports interior routing.
nah just a banjo like trickstuff

Extralite weight  :P
Seems to be well finished

I have some coming soon ฅ⁠^⁠•⁠ﻌ⁠•⁠^⁠ฅ

Besides a weight reduction, does this type of lever and hydraulic actuator work better than the regular IIIPro levers?   (Modulation, stopping power, response?)
You'd have to do the calc lol

73.5g for the levers means I can take my zrace x2's down to 357g and make em look much nicer

Hi All,    I cannot find the exact information.  Does the Speeder R48D allow for internal cable routing?
Who has got one build up?  Any ride info? 

Thanks.
nope unless you use a integrated fork (one can be found on the for sale forum on chinertown)

Has anyone put any rubber foam around the cables to prevent rattle? I've had to do that on my previous bike and it was possible to MacGuiver it with some Nerf gun bullets, but the holes are so tight on this frame, and in such precarious spots, that it seems using that approach might be impossible. Is it something to worry about?

Maybe by accessing the cables via the headtube and/or bottom bracket I can just stuff it with something that'll keep everything from banging around? Or is that just asking for more headaches later? All it'd take is just a little bit of balled-up newspaper etc.
I had no rattling without the rubber foam bc its lighter without it but I dont doubt that you can do it fairly easily.
