I also have both and do wonder how you experience them both. For me it's a little early to compare - only 300km on the SL7 - so I'll first ride it a bit more.

I suppose I refer more to how it fits. I find it almost as comfortable as the SL7 (I'm 50 next year, comfort is everything!) but also it's a smooth ride mind it's clearly slower than an SL7 but I think a lot of the SL7 speed comes from the Roval Rapides, simply the best wheelset I've ever ridden
Yep, not an issue.

Yes, the white powder you did find is corrosion. Clean up the dust and use some corrosion resistant carbon paste, I use Morganblue carbon paste in mine, but I think any other carbon paste should work. Just check the seatpost regularly, carbon doesn´t like aluminium at all
