I'm not an expert on geometry, but I'd be surprised if 7mm of bb drop made that big a difference. It's not like people say they feel like they are floating over the bike when they ride a 32 instead of a 25mm tire.
Best channel out there! Love every one of your builds. First of I can't wait to order that bar tape! And it looks absolutely 🔥 on that with the purple! I'm also a huge fan of using a cross bike as my road bike as there significantly lighter than gravel bikes and are a bit more twitchy making it more road like. But you get the benefits of a slighter longer wheel base, I use my trek boone and never have any issues of the feeling of a high bb. If anything I feel more "in the bike" than my tarmac sl7. And it's lighter than my sl7 😅
The “ Jackson “ brakes would have to be called “Thrillers “ . You’re wondering every time you pull them if there’s still any battery left. obviously there’s a mid level version of these brakes.
Is it possible to put a 2x chain ring on a bike like this? I've had the same idea of using a cx bike for endurance too but would want to be able to get a 50t chainring on there.
Im not super into road bikes, but I see what your issue is. You have quite an "agressive" position on the bike. Long, slammed and like a race-y geometry. Which from my understanding, is almost always the opposite of what endurance bikes should be? Cool that you found a happy medium in going with a CX bike. Lovely paint also
It’s got the iso speed in it. I’ve been through to many warranty nightmares with the mk4 Domane iso speed that I crossed it off the list. That was the bike I was gonna buy though

If you get itchy to race in the fall, take a drive up to Chicago and join us for some Chi Cross Cup races! Tons of races up in Wisconsin too!
What rear derailleur are you using? and cassette? 46t chainring? :) thank you!

Love these so much
Did you give the soloist a thought too?

Yea it comes with the braise on. Shouldn’t be an issue at all
ALDI bags in stock??
The boots match his hat tho!
I love this bike
So, how was it 4 months later?
Great, but my buddy bought it off me so I don’t have it anymore lol
@@bicyclestation I’m curious why you chose to get rid of it? Checkmate SLR or R5-CX? Over the Echo? (As an allroad w/ gravel capabilities).

formula italy speedlocks if you don't wanna bleed brakes and swap stems/ travel.
what spindle are those on the pedals?
HT titanium.
Damn such a good build 😍
Trek Domane RSL ?

Love the bar tape. Not sure that the bike will be comfortable. Not exactly the intention of a cx bike.

Subtitles/CC is really distracting. No option to turn off?
Impossible to watch this with the camera jerking around. Ugh.
Cervelo Should’ve made that bike blue and green
