Another warranty ALR5 frameset on the way from the US, apparently an upgrade wasn’t an option. Weirdly it looks to be ‘satin cobra blood’ which was never an colour option in Australia.jasonc wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2024 12:54 pmkeep us updated.Mr Purple wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2024 12:29 pmAnd for those following my Checkpoint ALR creak saga the frame is officially a write-off as expected. Apparently the left handed bottom bracket cup was crossthreaded from factory - an assembly issue. Surprised it lasted that long.
Trying to wangle an SL/SLR upgrade somewhere along in the process, we'll see how that goes!
Could probably pivot and sell the bike with an unridden frame to trade up to something lighter but I think I’ll hold on until I’m in a position to go Di2 as well. Might do a carbon bar upgrade for the new assembly.
