While some may view the UCI's minimum 6.8kg weight rule as antiquated, one could easily argue that it's prompted teams and mechanics to be more creative in how that weight is 'spent'. The 2011 USA Pro Cycling Challenge time trial, for example, featured a long and flat portion followed by a climb up Vail Pass. Garmin's solution that day was to pair the ultralight Cervélo R5ca frame with a full complement of aero componentry for a final product that was very slippery but still supposedly weighed less than 7kg
