Shimano crank recall update.

I'm happy to have my bike back with minimal down time.

Better yet, my minimizing the downtime means I have the GRX 2x pretty much unavailable when I got the bike. Overall the Ultegra 34-34 was usually fine and clearly fast for some paved downhill road riding but this is perfect for a lot of riding I do and a pair of old injured knees.

I can also state with the GRX front too, the indexing is just fine with the Ultegra brifters and RDX rear derailleur. I'm very happy to not have gone back to 1x or a more expensive crank. 31-48 is not a huge difference from 34-50 but I appreciate the close ratios between the gears. Now I feel that on gravel more vs just road.

All I want to do is ride bikes and go skiing, but should probably kill the thought of having the other crank for a project, and put that officially inspected crank for sale sooner than later.
