Lightweight Cyclocross: Shawn's High Five



Shawn sent me his cross rig:

"This is my new build, it weighs in just around 17.45 lbs and I can still drop bout 5/8 of a lb by changing out the OEM seatpost alone

High-Five Cycles frame and fork and wheels
FSA-SLK cranks with a 42t with custom Ruckus Components chainguard
Ruckus Components brakes
Grifo challenges 34
Ritchey WCS stem
Bontrager race lite bars
Shimano Ultegra 9 speed brifters
XT Shadow rear derailleur, look how clean the housing routes to it
I still need to switch out my pedals to my egg beaters (drops about 60 grams)
OEM seatpost"
