Success report: Last week switched my steel steed (tm) from Ultegra mechanical to SRAM Force AXS (with Red cranks/cassette and Quarq spider PM) and it was easier than expected. Sourcing parts was 2 months but upgrade itself took about a day. About 170km in so far (in 2 separate rides), no gear issues/dropping with the FD or anything, and I was expecting some. Impressed with the silent drivetrain and extended range on 10-33.
(The right pedal decided to unthread itself at the cafe stop yesterday, but found a pedal wrench onsite -Coldharbour Park Tool phonebox FTW- to put it back in. Checked the torque on both sides when I got back, it was more than adequate. Not sure how that happened, maybe I forgot to torque that side)
