Are you still comparing your Emonda SLR with the Domane SL? It's really not a valid means of comparing an SL vs and SLR - the difference between models is much, much more significant than the carbon difference. The Domane geo is slower/more stable and it's also carrying extra weight, primarily because of the larger tubes, greater tire clearance, and front and rear IsoSpeed.
