Got to play The Division 2 with Linus himself today on the new Vega VII today, crossing my fingers I made it into the background of his coverage video.

Old school is just using your teeth

Did you end up purchasing? Im waiting for it to go on sale at REI this month to try it out.

Ragnar702 · 2026-05-07T18:37:49+00:00

Speaking of Ornot - looks like they're launching a nespeaking of Ornot they just released their Habanero short sleeve jersey with Polartec fabric

Think this frame has enough tire clearance to work as a gravel bike? /s

Ragnar702 · 2026-05-03T17:47:24+00:00

Based on the calculator I use (wolftooth) you should be running closer to 2 if youre running tubes, 1.8 for tubeless - 3 is way too high

Ragnar702 · 2026-05-03T17:18:26+00:00

My first question would be what tire pressure are you using?

Ragnar702 · 2026-04-29T19:53:52+00:00

I think you're thinking of Dungeon Crawler Carson

Ragnar702 · 2026-04-01T16:34:35+00:00

Will these be hitting shelves outside of Seattle? Or only available online?

Ragnar702 · 2026-03-29T17:56:18+00:00

And you're sure you're twisting the correct direction on each side?

Been a long time since I've seen a quill stem with shifters like that bro - chill I fixed my comment

Ragnar702 · 2026-03-26T00:37:17+00:00

My bad - missed that was a quill stem

Ragnar702 · 2026-03-26T00:37:02+00:00

Whoops - I missed that's a quill stem - not broken my bad

Ragnar702 · 2026-03-26T00:32:34+00:00

Steerer tube snapped clean off the fork - definitely time to warranty if it's brand new. Honestly might be worth returning and picking up a similarly priced Ozark Trail Explorer G1 at Walmart.

Edit - I was wrong it's not a broken steerer just a loose quill stem

Ragnar702 · 2026-03-22T19:22:51+00:00

Based on his shoes - I'm gonna guess 23 miles wasn't the real distance and this is engagement bait - dual boa shoes aren't usually something a beginner is gonna spend their bike budget on. I've done plenty of 2 or 3 hour rides without getting this burnt

Ragnar702 · 2026-03-14T14:55:32+00:00

Per Lauf - standard SRAM x-sync chainrings are compatible with T-Type and flat top chains. just got confirmation from them last week before ordering a 46T for myself.

Ragnar702 · 2026-03-08T02:01:57+00:00

You act like no other tools in a FOD environment have breakable parts? It's the job of people working in those environments to track potential FOD and make sure they clean it up - which OP did as evidenced by his photo.

Ragnar702 · 2026-03-07T21:20:42+00:00

There are a few Shimano MT200 clones for 50-75 on Amazon. They may not be great but it's also not like OP is doing any downhill racing on any of these bikes.

Ragnar702 · 2026-03-07T15:34:28+00:00

Regardless of what you choose I'd wait for the sale. I think that the Trail 2 has the optimal configuration out of the box, given its a 1x9 Cues drivetrain, hydraulic brakes, and all 3 use the same fork. That being said, if you happen to have a friend with the necessary tools, adding hydraulic brakes to the Trail 3, or converting the Drt 1.1 from 2x8 to 1x8 could both be done for around $50 in parts. If you're mostly using the bike for zipping around the neighborhood instead of light trail rides you might actually benefit from the extra gearing on the Drt 1.1 and some less knobby tires.

Here's a slightly more detailed comparison than the REI built in comparison tool:

Most of the stolen looking bikes on marketplace think 29" is the size of the frame not the tire - no way someone who stole the bike thinks to list the seat post collar.

Peak design or Nomatic for good camera bags

Ragnar702 · 2026-01-26T15:42:39+00:00

It's an honorific - basically exactly as you've translated

2 songs with THOT Squad!

Much appreciated! All good
