Wow, your bike looks great! Looks very similar to mine, actually. I'm running Light Bicycle WR38s on mine, which I just got recently (running Goodyear Vector 4Season tires on them currently).

What kind of finish do you have on your WR50s and AR24s? Haven't seen the vertical stripe pattern before (at least, my WR38s don't look like that). Did you get them with teh glossy or satin finish? WR50s look glossy, right?

They call it vertical twill and I think its only available for the WR50. And because it's the Falcon Pro series you don't get to chose Matte or Gloss, they all look kind of glossy.
For the AR24 set I chose UD satin.

Honestly it isn't drastically different. I like the extra cog and shifting feels snappier. I also like using the syncro shift equivalent which I missed from my Di2 days.
I also really like the look of the crankset.
The new disc brake caliper design is also much better for me, as I had a lot of rubbing issues with the old one.

Any longer term update on how you're liking the Enve SES tires? Not a whole lot of people have them so curious as to your experience with them....

No complaints. I got them mainly for the looks but I've had no problems with them aside from the fact that they were pretty difficult to mount. I'm gonna try out the new tan wall pro ones soon because I think they have better rolling resistance than the enve's.

Thanks for sharing! I just got some new Pirelli P Zero Race TLR SLs and am pretty happy with them but, being the SL version and how much riding I'm getting in during the pandemic, just looking at "what's next" when these wear out...

Difficult to mount, roll great. I went from Conti 5000TL 25mm to Enve SES 25mm and found the Enve's equal to the Conti in rolling speed with better grip. Oh and they are much, much, lighter and have tan walls. My Conti 25's came in around 300-305 grams while the Enve's were in the 235-240 gram range.
