Luckily, my cheap ass hybrid is a bit more forgiving on torque settings and also a lot more robust because it hasn't been stripped to within an inch of its life to save the final tenth of a gram from the load bearing sections of the bars.

The downside of that it it weighs around 13.5kg all in, probably a kg more when you factor in lights, frame mounted mini-pump and water bottle.

And you’re not pulling 600 watts at the end of a 5 hour ride!
 
Great race eventually. Glad Van set Poel held out for the win but was a bit nerve-wracking near the end. Some big effort that today in those conditions.
 
Just watching Milan San Remo now, bit of a novelty watching it from the start, but I think even I might dip in and out a bit from this one. Only 280km left ... ;-)
