As someone who rides SPD pedals exclusively (road, commuter, gravel, MTB) I think I’ve tried all of the variations from single-sided (A600/ES600), dual sided (A530/ A520) a nd what Shimano MTB calls “race” (XTR M9000/XT…
I stopped by a dealer yesterday to look at a “carbon blue smoke” 2021 Checkpoint w/ GRX in my size (in stock!) but couldn’t bring myself to pull the trigger due to the BB90 bottom bracket*. I would’ve thought this…

Litespeed is PF30. Lynskey is 68mm threaded.

The XT derailleur already has the necessary chainwrap for a 45T, has the original clutch design that the RX copied, and is cheaper besides. It just leaves you to solve the road shifter cable pull difference with the…

So it looks like the Carbon Comp Diverge got an upgrade to Ultegra R8020 hydro with a matching $600 price hike. The specs posted say the frame is BB386, with a PF30 Praxis bottom bracket, I guess to fit the Zayante…
