They're right, it's a pointless downgrade
-
I'd say do it, mounts everywhere, huge clearance, strong, non-vertical dropouts. It's great.
-
I didn't say don't do it! Just that the caadx will take panniers and shit.
A cross check would probably be more versatile thigh if you want panniers and mudguards everywhere.

If you're after a 56cm I'm considering selling up. Nothing like a 2 week long tour to make you regret buying a frame slightly too small. Running a pretty eccentric set up inc. downtube shifters and dirt drops, 105 chainset with a 11-34t cassette on the back, so frame might be the only part you want.

Functional help:
I want to change my caadx for a cross-check.
Cross check seems more versatile. On my caadx I'm worried about cracking a stay from heavy panniers (on the v rare occasions I ride with panniers).
Laner and pastry_bot say DON'Y DO IT. But I want to.
