had this bike since april and it has never once been empty. front bag, pouch, second pouch, small pouch whose only job was supervising the other pouches
then i went on holiday and stood in my hallway with the full loadout on and thought wait. i don’t have to pack for work. no camera gear no macbook no laptop shaped guilt. took the messenger bag off and briefly saw god
it’s light. that was the whole point. i paid a number i won’t say out loud FOR lightness and then spent three months bolting fabric to it until it handled like a chest freezer
so now i ride with nothing. no bags, no pouches, no way to carry anything i buy, which has quietly become a financial strategy

I’ve changed bits and bolts on my P Line with alloy or titanium chasing a number and then do the exact same you were, bag on and weight, admittedly mine is not apple related it’s more cake with an aero press, a tiny stove, water, coffee beans and a way to grind them. And normally a croissant filled with what was left from dinner the day before all with a little chair.
But I’m not on strava, and I’ll leave Peer Gynt for king of the mountain. And as to the light bits yes they’re light but also colour coded so it’s more the aesthetic, or at least that’s what I tell myself. You are definitely correct though the P Line even with the less than 3 kg is an awesome bike ☺️🥂
