Scenery was good but SCR eastbound has been mostly about exercise (i.e., prolonged suffering) for me to date. Starting to understand why you recommend doing SCR westbound.

The aftermarket lockring (which comes with Prestacycle UniBlock Cassette | 11-Speed Shimano / SRAM /Campagnolo for HG 11 Freehub - Prestacycle) does not have a crush spacer behind it. So over time the lockring (a) worked itself loose, (b) extended further outboard than the surface of the hub that goes against the inside of the dropout, and (c) got caught against a barely protruding RD hanger bolt. Thankfully, no permanent damage to any component other than the lockring itself. Ordered a Shimano CS-6700 lockring designed for a 12T smallest cog.
