Seat stays and rear brake
Front end
The top tube is strongly ovalized for easy portability. Note also the clean simplicity of cabling with DuraAce Di2 electronic shifting; the cables disappear into the frame at the opposite side.
The speed sensor is mounted on the fork.
Seat and seatpost and seat tube
Rear wheel and rear brakes
Shimano DuraAce Di2 electronic satellite thumb shifter
This satellite thumb shifter operates the rear shifting in addition to the usual controls on the brake levers (Shimano DuraAce Di2 has dual shifter ports).
Front wheel
The hand-built wheel utilizing a DT Swiss 240s hub provides a comfortable yet high performance ride.
Shimano 'Trail' pedal
The Shimano DuraAce 'Trail' pedal has a broad platform for foot support (more so than the 'Race' model). But it also has aluminum guards surrounding the pedal.
I cut off the not-needed guards, reducing the 374 gram pedals to 335 grams (for comparison, 'Race' pedals are 305g, previous XTR pedals are 325g).
