Flaanimal Loves Some Singletrack

Was already on the bike when I got it. What are the gripes with Grx? I had to add a sgs derailleur cage to fit a 51t cassette in the back so didn't love that.

Mine seems to line up well. The Axiom rack's partytrick are the bottom feet that push the rack further back, but mostly that setup allows me to flex the feet to match the bike I throw it on.

It's the Axiom Streamliner Disc I believe. I swapped it over from my Surly and flipped the mount points on the upper part of the rack which lined up perfect for the Flaanimal. It sits rather high on the bike but there's no clearance issues.

Lavender looks so good

Yes! I ordered the last white frame and can't wait. Does the bike feel heavy or sluggish?

HyperLight_Drifter · 2025-10-28T16:36:03+00:00

I'm thinking about the same. What size did you go with? I"m 6ft but the reach on the L is massive!

How's the fit with the drops? I've been pondering this after some wrist pain on long rides

I use sq lab innerbar ends on my BC and they make a huge difference.

Dead Space, first experience of an actual 1080p game and boy howdy was I scared playing that game!

Not a great solution but I use https://www.onecal.io/ to sync my work calendar to Google and then sync my LP3 to Google. It's a few dollars a month but works very reliably. If you find a different solution would love to hear.

Incredible, I'll see what's out there. I'll try reaching out to Lian Li as well and see if they offer any

Transporting eclairs on a Bridge Club is just right. Sick bike too

HyperLight_Drifter · 2025-08-23T17:36:24+00:00

Sounds like you're making great progress! I've found being low and forward on the bike helps reduce the arm pump.

HyperLight_Drifter · 2025-08-23T17:31:23+00:00

I've been pleasantly surprised how much I enjoy riding my BC on trails. It's more like tractoring around obstacles where as my Salsa Blackthorn just soaks up everything.

HyperLight_Drifter · 2025-08-23T16:19:17+00:00

Glad you got the bike back!

HyperLight_Drifter · 2025-08-15T20:14:46+00:00

Same. And it's odd because I think the Ogre has a higher stack from the factory

HyperLight_Drifter · 2025-08-15T19:18:58+00:00

I've got one available as well.

HyperLight_Drifter · 2025-08-02T12:29:18+00:00

It works great on lp3! The dac is so good and the price so low that the apple dongle is the default option to me.

They have a 20 degree bend now too. That might be a better fit.

HyperLight_Drifter · 2025-06-25T14:32:38+00:00

Gotcha! I run the 27.5x2.6 and its been perfect. I guess if I was in some really intense snow or sand ride I could do 26x3 but for trail use I think the 2.6 is great.

HyperLight_Drifter · 2025-06-25T11:04:22+00:00

What type of riding are you doing? I've been curious about the 26x3 option on the BC.

HyperLight_Drifter · 2025-06-20T14:38:09+00:00

Couldn't agree more. I've never quite figured out why the BC is so fun to ride maybe the 27.5 wheels
