pandapodium.cc/2026/02/25/worlds-lightest-time-alp-dhuez-disc/?ref=2 - All about the build, list of parts.

After @Mapdec did his video series on the TIME bikes, I was intrigued enough to buy a frame. The frame then sat there for half a year as I got distracted by other projects, but recently I finally got time to build this frame up. When I weighed the original frame and noticed how heavy it was, I set my eyes on a bunch of lightweight parts to keep the final build weight down. The end result is a pretty light bike, and maybe even the lightest TIME Alpe D'Huez disc out there?
