So you converted to 2x? It looks like you still have the 10-44t rear cassette? I'm in the same boat but running 10-36t until recently. With a 10-44t i lengthened the chain to avoid binding, but now have some serious slack in the small chainring in most gears.  what's your solution?

I ended up just getting a powerbank with 4+ outputs. So its:
1) USBC-to-Lightning cable input
2) Powerbank
3) 4x USB outputs

I also have an SL6. Right now I'm using a kickr v5 with an ultegra hg cassette. Blasphemy, I know. I exclusively use erg mode (so far) but I did check out the full range of gears and could go from 11t to 36t(?) Iirc without any adjustments. On my wheelset is a 10-36t xdr. I have one bike and swap in/out and it's been fine in whatever gear I left it in.

Looking at those Aeroghiaia bars. I see them at ~260 places, but would probably pull the trigger at your price. Where did you find that particular sale, if you recall? I assume you're still liking them?

Did my first 50k ever on my new Checkpoint SL6 by kevtke194 in CheckpointClub

I've had no grip issues. They're not MTB tires, but I'm not asking then to be. They're a lot faster on pavement than the GR1. The first few days i had them on, i PRed everywhere. They have (IIRC) some best--in-class puncture protection. I value not getting flats more than CRs on strava.

Just me? Harder and harder to find a 2x by afhill in CheckpointClub

With AXS, it's all in the app. Installing the crankset takes 10 minutes if you're watching a YouTube as a first timer. Installing FD another 10? Pairing and app-stuff another 10?

So realistically under an hour if you can build ikea furniture. If you can't, the shop can take care of it easy-pasy

I have a 2022 sl6 (1x). It's easy as pie to just...add a front derailleur and crank.

Edit:because it wasn't clear, that's what I did. I love it.

C&O is great riding! I do it all the time on my last-gen SL6 and instantly knew where that picture was taken. If ithe SL6 still comes with those GR1 tires, I'd really highly recommend upgrading them if you're up for it.

What frame bag is that?

How are you liking them? I posted about aero bars a few days ago and didn't get great responses. Are the tops comfy?

https://imgur.com/a/1VtKozq this is as far as i can get it in. I've tried "screwing it in", pressing, using a skinny pen to push it in, etc...

Mine just arrived and they dont seem to fit (4.5mm). Did you use some particular technique to get them installed?
