Yes, but I have an entire year to figure everything out. I am eyeing 46/39 but it would be really nice to try it out before I set it all up.

Why thank you. I'm always blown away by an f stop lower than 2.8

Dang... don't you have this built up yet? I'm stoked, should be a nice build.

I'm still undecided if I want to build my own wheelset, or buy a pre-made one. But I did get a chance to borrow a set, so hopefully I can throw it together soon!
