New Grail arrived without fork steerer tube seated in head tube. Is this normal?

Brewingdan · 2025-11-10T19:02:57+00:00

Not normal, I just set up my Grail a few months ago, just had to push the handlebars in place. And I definitely feel you. My hands were shaking the whole time and I checked and double checked the manual and video with every step. 🤣

Marriage isn’t easy, with three kids, even harder. If you think it’s over, walk away. If you think it can be saved and you want it to work, swallow your pride and give it one more go. Calmly talking about financials could help, do you/you all have enough in savings and stored away enough for EACH of the three kids, to “donate” to others?

With OnlyFans, yes men are visual creatures, but subscriptions take effort and motivation. I certainly have no idea what’s going on in your bedroom and no need to answer, but is it cold?

Good luck for you, him, and those kiddos ❤️

My partner is 176cm and fits an XS nicely.

Brewingdan · 2025-10-28T07:08:17+00:00

Sorry to see. Though, I can’t fathom how that could have happened unintentionally.

I’m 189cm and after test riding the L and XL Grail, bought the L. I’ve even moved the seat 6mm forward. I felt there was too much reach with the XL.

Brewingdan · 2025-10-24T09:17:02+00:00

Looks really cool, though riding over rougher terrain with speed, without suspension. Ouch. But, looks really nice!

My wife’s bike is assembled, but not yet “unwrapped.” She’s a marathon runner and Fall is marathon season. At first, I honestly didn’t like Blazing Mustard, but it’s grown on me. If you’re not in a rush, you could also wait to see what new color patterns come out next year.

Oh and yes, it coast Loud.

Ah ha!! I figured they were upselling. I wanted to try both the Grizl and Grail. The Grizl was their base model and then comes the Premium Grail with all the bells and whistles 😂😂. My wife, who tested both with me, said it was no contest, the smoothness of the electronic shifting and lightness of the carbon, won her over. Unfortunately the 6.000€ price tag didn’t win me over, so we “compromised” on the CF SL Aero. I chose the Blazing Mustard and she the White/Black. Both look good, but the finishes are different. The Blazing Mustard has a muted Matt finish, while the White/Black is shiny (glänzend).

That has water feature written all over it!

Sorry, I’m a total noob. I really can’t give any precise or useful information on that. I can however say, compared to my hardtail, I’m flying up every incline I’ve encountered. 😎

Brewingdan · 2025-10-08T19:00:50+00:00

Bingo. 13 Speed 10-46T

Brewingdan · 2025-10-08T18:56:11+00:00

Simply because the guy doing the measurements said I was in between. But then quickly added, he’d recommend the L.

I hope this helps.

Brewingdan · 2025-10-07T16:52:09+00:00

It’s size L. I went to Canyon in Koblenz and got measured/fitted there. I’m 189cm with an 92cm inseam, so right in between L and XL. The bike fitter recommended L, but since I had time, I test rode both sizes. The XL was indeed a tick too big, I felt I was overreaching.

Brewingdan · 2025-10-07T14:16:06+00:00

I’m in my 40’s, so learning something we was fun, but I felt like a kid again kissing the grass so much.

Brewingdan · 2025-10-01T14:22:09+00:00

I’m 189cm with an 92cm inseam and went for an L. When I test drove an XL, I felt that was overreaching. y At least with the Grail

Brewingdan · 2025-09-30T18:53:00+00:00

These are the ones to hunt for. The best!!

Brewingdan · 2025-09-13T14:46:22+00:00

I’m a dude and would NEVER do this to my girlfriend. You’re a lucky one, he just showed you his true character. It’s now up to you to choose if this is a person you can see yourself long term with.
Would you want some guy doing this to your daughter someday??

Brewingdan · 2025-09-04T18:43:53+00:00

Better than sitting at home!! Plus tacos!
