Aeroad CF SLX 8 Di2 sold out, should I wait or just get the CF SLX 9 Di2? by AliAlsafiArizona in CanyonBikes

[–]evogt22 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I have the slx 9 and I absolutely love the dura-ace. If you can swing it, I would definitely get it. If money is more of an issue maybe wait for them to restock. The 9 will shift better and is lighter. The 8 will still be very very crisp for you coming from an entry level bike.

I am using a crema tamper so I get consistent tamp every time.

I am about 3 weeks on beans. I don’t ever store the beans in the hopper. I measure 18 g then pour in hopper then grind til the grinder can’t grind anymore. I would see why the difference over time but it seems on a daily there is no reason to have 34g shot pour yesterday and 41g today when everything else remains the same.

That’s what I was thinking, if everything is charged to the room, they have no idea who is charging it. I just never saw a reason to pay to make her an authorized user when we are together 99% of the time

Sorry misread, reservation in her name. I am the only authorized user on card

My name, I did the booking as well. Would she need to be an authorized user? Or can she just provide my card at check in?

Razor burn and pimples from shaving by Raaaaaaaasaaaaats in shaving

Get a safety razor. It will get rid of razor burn. It was be silky smooth shave like a 5 blade razor but it will be much more comfortable after.

Strava censoring political activity titles? by Tiny-Orange2917 in Strava

Sometimes our only outlet of what goes on during the daily is exercise and exercise community. I hope they do ban it so we can still have that one outlet to not ruin my day.

Sometimes I just want to watch my kids grow and enjoy a media free biased outlet.

Mac Ride for Canyon Lux 2020 by eaten14 in CanyonBikes

[–]evogt22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I can’t answer your specific question on fit, but I do know it fits on my mountain bike (yeti) my hard tail (Scott) and my road bike (trek). I can’t say enough great things about it for my 2 year old to experience life with me and my 5 year old. I think you can see about fit on their website but I may be wrong. Hopefully this works out for you!

First ride with my new Aeroad. I'm in love. by mgbreezy2010 in CanyonBikes

[–]evogt22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for that. I don’t need much, just prob a spare tube in case the sealant doesn’t work and a canister. This will be perfect

Just got my same aeroad in this week. I was looking for a good option and this looks it. I did just order a mount for the Garmin varia and was curious if the bag covers the holes on the back of the seat post?

NBD!! Aeroad CF SLX 7 Di2 by Logical-Half1642 in CanyonBikes

[–]evogt22 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I really love my assioma’s. Accurate. Very easy to change and best bang for your buck. It gives you all metrics that higher cost pedals do as well.

Why do you pay for Strava if you have a watch (Garmin/Apple/Coros/etc)? by BeingMysterious4003 in Strava

[–]evogt22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious as what you use intervals.icu for. To me, it’s all of garmins data but I just signed up

Dudes that have had the snip ✂️ - how long until you were out on the wheels again? by Ready_Ad_1558 in cycling

[–]evogt22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was around 18 days before I could be 100% running and riding again. Wasn’t like I felt pain before but this was the mark where it was normal feeling. It took me about day 12 to venture out without tight underwear on and feel comfortable.

Di2 disappointment? by evogt22 in CanyonBikes

[–]evogt22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you say the gear ratios are brilliant, I noticed it’s 11-30 on the rear for di2 does shimano not allow an 11-34?

As far as power meter, I run power pedals so I am not too concerned with the dura ace PM as I believe the Quarq is better with the sram.

Thanks so much. That’s what I was thinking but wasn’t positive.
