Riding in OR for the summer has led me to think 46x30 would be a good idea. Does anyone with inside info know when GRX parts will be available? A few online sellers list them as out of stock.

Thx

Listed ETAs at Q are July/August for most GRX cranksets.

Built up a new gravel/BC rig last month and used this crankset. It's great, same gearing you're looking for. Also direct mount rings. https://www.backcountry.com/fsa-energy-modular-bb386evo-adventure-crankset
There's a coupon on Backcountry.com where you can take 20% off so that knocks it down to $200. I'm running it with a Shimano RX RD-RX800 rear mech and a SRAM 11-36 rear cassette and it shifts great and gives me a really wide range for riding singletrack and blown-out jeep trails.

Doing a little research on this for undisclosed reasons - and found that our forum sponsor (www.biketiresdirect.com) sister store (www.westernbikeworks.com) has GRX Di2 bits and cranksets showing up 7/13-8/2...

Example: https://www.westernbikeworks.com/product/shimano-grx-fc-rx810-11-speed-crankset

Not gonna lie, I'm pretty interested in the GRX Di2 group - the levers look really good for gravel purposes - and the 48/31 paired with 11/34 would be most excellent.

I'm getting a set too. Shimano basically checked all the boxes of what I've been asking for for the last few years. Especially interested to try the inline hydro brakes. Stech suggests early August delivery.

Looks like most parts are in stock at Western (see link above) but not as complete group.
