Canyon Aeroad CF 7.0 Di2
Went out today and tried making more use of the big ring for "general" cycling/easy hills

I was surprised how much easier it was in the 50-16 range, which If I understand correctly on a 9 speed 11-32 cassette is here in red

73 67 57 50 44 38 33 28 25
95 87 75 65 58 50 43 37 32
122 112 96 84 74 64 56 48 42

For general cycling I normally spend most of my time in the section I've highlighted in blue, but I can see me getting a lot more use out of 64 and 74
