Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

If it's proprietary, I would imagine SRAM would have an adapter or some kind of solution.

I just finished installing an eTap Red system on a bike I own. It actually comes with three shims of differing sizes. I would guess the same thing goes for the eTap AXS stuff.

If I’m understanding this correctly, that seems to me like it wouldn’t be a good idea and leaves the FD somewhat unsupported and vulnerable to twisting. You might want to talk to SRAM and Cervelo tech support about that.
