Ew! Compact

I believe I had a 56t single ring on this one.

Gravel bike?

This should be on Dura Ace 9000+ imo

You've all got Stockholm Syndrome. All Shimano looks like an AI was shown 10000 images of Campagnolo and came up with their own version.

Shimano cranks look all shite. 9000 was bold but shite, everything else is just boring. Especially ultegra, put some rotors or any other thing. Optimised to look crap.
End rant.

Nope.

But that's not optimized! Will obviously bend under my 2 watt per kilo

I loved DA9000 and thought it was the best looking group so far. But I'm not sure anything will ever surpass the aesthetics of 7800.

FC-7800 was indeed a masterpiece, but I reckon 9000 suits this beast better

Original spec

My spec

Yeah, that's two different bikes - the 9000 one is a bit big for me, spent ages looking for one in my size, finally found one after I hacked off the cable guides and full internalled the Di2... (the big one is wearing a slice of seat mast I don't use just for looks for the pic)

Oh yeah, it's not full 9000 - 7400 rear brake because dual pivot rear is stupid (Campy belatedly realised this, but I knew it from the start), and 9150 levers because they look better than 9000, and spare hoods will be available longer.

love tcrs, love the lower one

9000 is the ultimate HH groupset imo. Instantly recognisable as expensive and blingy without being gaudy.

Old school Sram Red 10 speed mechanical a close second.

Gaudy.

It look like shit on every build imo.

It looks shit on its own.

Even in space.

9000 was the last group before the rear derailleur went all mountain bikey.
All black finishes look cheap compared to earlier groups.

How many times have you posted your giant on here?

Lol

This wan? Edit.

Never mind . 😁
