T47, so threaded.

Great looking bike, Tim. Hope you enjoy it a lot. What integrated headset system do they use?

I think Santiago really builds a top notch bike!

Agreed on Santiago--great guy and tech. I'm embarrassed to say I don't recall the brand of headset--will find out. I always assume Chris King but don't think this is one.

Hope all's well, Tim

The integrated bar/stem/headset comes from Enve. The Signature guys were not sure where Enve sources the headset--they'll let me know.

Edit: Enve gets the headset from Chris King (that's 51's understanding). Tim

Thanks, Tim. Looks great in this application! I’m sure you’ll have a bunch of great miles on this bike. Hope to get to ride with you again soon.

If you weigh it the way the bike industry does, without pedals, it's 16.4 lbs. With pedals, it's a hair over 17, but that includes Garmin mount and bottle cages. It's laughable for me to worry about weight, tbh. I'm 70 years old! But I love, love, love . . . bikes!
