I feel like you’d be better served by something newer and simpler.

Considering a SR12 groupset retails for about $2500, and the SLC-SL is a bit of a “collectors edition” of the soloist carbon, this is a pretty cool bike. I’m not sure about those brakes, but there are some positive reviews out there (search TriRig Omega One).
The bike is old and was built to a past understanding of what “fast” was. Newer bikes will be both more aero and more comfortable. SR12 will have eye-watering replacement costs for cassettes, chains, and chain rings.

That’s absolutely a fast bike. It will ride and feel very fast… and be very, very stiff and unforgiving.

I wouldn’t do it.
You’ll find something better for nearly the same $$.
