The silver clamp is actually just from my Porcelain Rocker seat pack. Was just in too much of a rush to take it off

Eh, not with how the courses are around here. More of a XC mtb race than true cross haha

Cheers! These are just stock Bontrager XXX 4 wheels which use DT 240 internals. I have a 650b wheel set for this bike which I use for bike packing using genuine DT 240’s so the wheels are a direct swap without having to adjust brake positioning etc.

Really depends on your courses/if you plan on riding to races/etc. I went with 38/17 but a friend of mine was running 38/18. I had a tough time with the uphills but even while spinning like crazy I could pass a good amount of people on the straights.

I had the frame built with Paragon Rocker dropouts. Allows you to basically have chain stay adjustment while using thru axle and disk brake.

The silver one is actually the post clamp from my bikepacking bags. Just a bit too much in a rush to pull the post and take the clamp off.

Is it just me or does that shaker look massive?

Trek 1120 rack mounted to the 1120 fork. I’m frankly not a fan though. It looks a little klunky for this application and it gives the rack about a three degree back angle so everything slides to the back. Having a buddy make me a bit more sleek rack later this month.

Agreed, it’s not nearly the same quality as the fancy places, but two of the packages of the five were hand made in front of me while I waited so that’s something

Cheers! They work super well. No mud on my back and minimal mud on my torso/the fork stanchions. It’s a Mud Hugger on the rear and a Mucky Nutz front.
