Component Deals & Selection / Re: Separate set - narrow handlebars and low stem - for internal routing

Sup guys,
as im contemplating on tt-x38 frame, im looking for a separate stem-handlebar combo for full internal routing.

The reason is because I already have stem-mount tri-bars Controltech Falcon mini (must be used on fixtured squared/round stem). Using normal drops handlebar, at least i can still race in draft-legal races.

so far stem-handlebar combo available is https://www.velobuild.com/products/2021-new-carbon-handlebar-with-separate-stem , but i dont like the look of the stem.
for stem thats internal routing, theres this kocevlo stem : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005436665835.html .
i need help for handlebar recommendations with center hole that the brake cables can go direct into center stem.
*in event i want to convert full tri cockpit, i can use TanTan tri basebar as it has center hole for direct internal routing into stem

Also i remember seeing theres an oem factory that makes similar handlebar style with mono-tri bar attachment like the new canyon aeroad cockpit (it looks a lil fugly; but hey, a solution worth considering), but i cant find it now. Do link me if you recall the brand

< edit >
found
- kocevlo dropbar with center hole : https://a.aliexpress.com/_onGIVuF
- bxt dropbar with built in tri-bar mount (but not full internal routing): https://a.aliexpress.com/_olP635N
- the fugly mono-rise tri-bar i mentioned above seems to be this falco clipon : https://a.aliexpress.com/_oFSRLVH

Deda superzero rs handlebars with deda superbox stem, they confirmed to me that handlebars can be clamped with clip on aerobars.
I wouldnt trust kocevlo 150gram carbon handlebars to withstand forces from clip on bars

Sorry for the delay.

I will get to the details.

Firstly, with the same wheels the bike has gained weight, it is 7.125 kg now. Made some quality of life adds - adding 70g of weight was shockingly easy to do.

The frame weighed 900 grams with paint, the UDH, and the FD hanger. The finish is very nice but there were oddities, such as the BB was 40.5mm, and compared to a Light Carbon frame I have the disk brake fittings weren't faced as well.

Components: Dura-ace, with a Riro carbon crankset, 50/34 chain rings, Favero assiomo uno power meter pedals, Selle Italia SLR saddle, Onirii 160mm Rotors front and back, Avian Canary 34 width handlebars, Light Carbon Wheels (68mm depth), YBN Chain, Conti GP 5000 TLR, and TPU tubes.

Wheels are here, they are excellent: https://www.lightcarbon.com/lightcarbon-super-light-c67db-undulating-rim-depth-carbon-spoke-road-wheels_p232.html

The build went really smooth other than mistakes I made, I am new to modern bikes and so I had to redo a lot of things.

Note - it comes with a 7 by 7 seat post clamp. Ask for the 7 by 9 if you need it.

Justin from Speeder was excellent, straight forward and accurate, maybe too direct for Canadian living in Wisconsin.

Another post will come in a few minutes with more pics.

How has your riro crankset been behaving, how many km do you have on them?
