Closing in on 1000mi on this now and firmly believe it’s a keeper - so it’s getting its own thread..

I’ve made a handful of changes from stock and it sits right at 6.8-kg now w pedals and cages.

Build:

Red AXS w PM, 10-28, 46/33, CLX-R 160s
DT Swiss 25th Anniversary Wheels, Veloflex Corsa 25s, Vittoria Latex
Canyon CP-20 Bar/Stem - 110*42, Canyon Tape
Canyon VCLS 13 Seatpost
Fizik Antares EVO VS Adaptive Saddle, 3D printed Ion mount
Dura Ace 9100 +4mm pedals
K-Edge out-front mount and chain-catcher
Arundel Mandibles w spacers to clear the K-Edge

I love the way this bike fits, looks, handles, and feels. And knowing I can put 32s on it and do a BWR-type ride is just icing on the cake.

What did you own before this if you don't mind me asking?

Thats a dangerous question, I'm not sure if it would fit within the character limit LOL

That's an accurate appraisal - there have been a few..

All that weight savings, just to throw on the heaviest bottle you can find lol. Get some Elite Fly bottles!

I couldn't stand that seatpost, heavy and clunky. Replaced with Roval Alpinist. I have an XL CF SLX and had a heck of a time getting it down to 6.8; CFR must be a few hundred grams lighter. Let me know if you want to sell it :-)
