I Built An Illegal Super-Light Hill Climb Bike For Under £1000! | Part 3

Over the past three weeks, Alex has been building a super lightweight hill climbing machine on just a £1000 budget. Starting with a cheap second-hand Trek Madone, he has sanded the frame (sorry again!) and bought a load of new budget parts. It’s now time to build the bike, find out how much it weighs and take it for a test ride. It’s super-light bike on a budget: part 3!
