Does anyone here have a wheel with 5.2mm carbon spokes and a ParkTool TM-1 spoke tension meter? I am looking for a reference deflection number at proper tension (max tension in the wheel). Reason being that I am building a wheelset with those carbon spokes, but lacking experience as to how far I can go.

Hi eveybody - I fell into the LightCarbon rabbit hole, and am about to order a LCG072-D soon, so I have spent half of my vacation reading a lot here on Chinertown.
A lot, but surely not everything, and so here is my first question:
Can someone tell me what the weight of the down tube storage door is? It looks to be rather weighty since it is aluminum.
