Nice. Hard to see when zooming in, but looks like you need to shorten the chain for more chain wrap on the cog. Maybe consider having the tensioner pushing up, instead of down.
Had the day off in lieu of Memorial Day (essential worker life) so I finally got around to installing my new mullet drivetrain.
Rival 1 Shifters/hoods
11 speed 11-51 cassette
SRAM Apex Eagle derailleur with the cable fin mod installed to convert the pull ratio from my Rival shifters.
Everything installed fairly easily, had to add a couple links to my chain and I'm still getting some chain rub in a couple gears (which might be a bent hanger) but it shifts well and easily hits 51.
Meh. Came in early today to I “think” finalize my CBR setup. One of the guys I’m starting with says I need beefier tires than Pathfinder 42s. Luckily I have a 50 Gallon tub filled with tire options 😂
I also got some CL shims to move my front rotor over. With the Rival Caliper the spokes tap the caliper bolt under hard braking. It’s not horrible, but also not acceptable.

Swapped cranks to make the Allez a 2x for the Highlands NOT Fondo tomorrow. Although it has less climbing than my last 3 200ks so I’m not really sure why. Anywho.
Also still running pre-pro Red. I have 2 of these groups so I might lighten up the Roubaix a bit. We got in an S-Works with the new Rec and it’s like 3lbs lighter than my bike 😳
Swapped 11-48 trashed cogset for a 11-42
Swapped the 36t chainring for 34
Swapped old Beatty for a new Beatty
Replaced a broken spoke
Trued up that wheel
Aligned Dhanger
Swapped back to air shock , Manitou mara pro . Did quit a bit of fork tunning as well , less ramp up , less comp and faster rebound. Best it's felt in a long time .

I was riding for a few hours today and noticed I was having significantly less breaking power.
I got home and saw that somehow one of my break pads slipped off and it was barely touching the rim, got to ordering the part and now I wait for it to arrive and I'll install it later.
What difference did you notice? Do you have an older Mezzer as they seem to have changed tunes on them?
I still haven't gotten mine fully setup because I never carry the huge digital shock with me. But current setup has been pretty crazy good. I'd almost say there could be more low compression but need to play more with the air spring before that's definite.
