My actual weight measurements are marked with bold.
What needs to be fixed:
- Rear hub is reported to be making noises randomly, probably bearing issue - bearing is OK, ratchet needed some cleaning - freehub body damage, replaced wheelset
- Right hand shifter hood is damaged
- Bar tape needs to be replaced or cleaned and redone replaced by a Fizik
- Headset lower cone needs cleaning and fitting, it is stuck from old grease done
- The thread in the right cable guide on the downtube seems to be broken - update: the screw is broken in half done/replaced
- Stem may be too long for me replaced by a 120mm +shim
- Chipped paint on the frame needs to be covered/repaired, especially at the dropouts and the head tube
- Chainrings, cassette and chain needs cleaning - in general, everything needs cleaning done
- Brake cables may need to be changed
- Shifter cable needs rerouting or adjustment around headtube
- Weights and geo should be measured done, see Geometry
- New tools for the sprocket and the bottom bracket purchased
