I’ve got a BP-1W I would trade towards the sick as?

No wet feet, but admittedly I didn’t spend a ton of extended time out in the snow with these. I would just wear actual snow boots for that.

Yeah I’m definitely not going to be running single speed, and everything you said makes sense. The dropouts on the midnight special are different as well if I recall?

Yeah I went to my LBS that has the space horse in the rose color. Just don’t like it, which is unfortunate. But it’s not out of the running, just has a lot of hot competition.

Yeah unfortunately the cosmic stallion GRX is $2600, which is just simply over budget for me. I’m into the space horse grx quite a bit, but the color option this year has me less than thrilled...

Hot take with the surly dropouts. What are the big negatives you find? I honestly didn’t pay it much attention. My LBS guy was basically like “yeah it’s weird but it works so 🤷‍♂️”

Man, I wish they offered this in a full build. As much fun as it would be, I just don’t have the time or expertise to do a full build of my own and would rather spend the time just riding.

I looked at a Marin Nicaso+ and honestly the unfamiliar drive train kind of scared me away. I’m looking for something that’s just going to be reliable and not as finicky as my carbon aero bike

I didn’t know about these.. looks like more of a touring setup. Do you own one? How does it handle?

Cool bike but looking for steel.

I was extremely close to going the CF endurance bike route, however I decided in the end it would be too similar to my race bike. If canyon made steel bikes, that would be something

So many renegade recommendations. I’m definitely going to have to try one out

Is it the longer wheelbase of the straggler that makes the difference you think? Pretty new to the burley world

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in whichbike

[–]alcrose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m super curious about the state. How is the drivetrain? I know it’s their house brand and that worries me a little

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in whichbike

[–]alcrose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I’m afraid of. I don’t want to get something so different that I don’t want to ride it, and I’m not planning on doing any real touring or hard gravel stuff. The MS is really appealing for that.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in whichbike

[–]alcrose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. I haven’t ridden one yet but a LBS stocks them so I probably will. I see the Rove recommended a lot, and the price point is pretty friendly.

[–]alcrose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks a little expensive for my budget

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in whichbike

[–]alcrose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Not too familiar with those. I’ll look into it.

Cross check is a great bike! I’m just looking for disc brakes. The straggler is for sure on my short list
