Re: LTK266-D-SL, lightweight frame confirmed under 800g w/paint and accessories (M) Update after slamming the stem to match my previous bike's position, and doing a 90 minute solo where I could really pay attention to feel. This was an object lesson in how much fit matters. I didn't realize how uncomfortable I was with the extra 30mm of spacer stack and how much that was affecting my sense of the bikes handling.

As I settle in and get used to the LTK266-D-SL, it is starting to wow me. The only thing I'm missing right now is a certain snap of acceleration, and I attribute that almost entirely to the change in tires. If it had 30mm GP5k mounted instead of these Michelin Pro5 35mm comfy boys, I doubt it would miss a beat. Having tires that are each +~180g and doing group rides with surges was not a good test. After a solo, the LTK is showing how comfortable, responsive, and confidence-inspiring it is. OK, enough from me now. Excited to see other people's builds and just chime in if people have issues. Long term review next year.
