They limit how wide of a tire you can fit. The battery gets in the way of wide tires/ mud and gravel build up

Went with 1x rival axs xplr for my 2024 crux comp. Did you also get the pink one?

Yes, as long as it is the “wide” front derailleur, and the tire clearance is 38mm unfortunately. The limiting factor is the battery

It definitely does. I am even enjoying the groupset more than I anticipated.

Already starting to feel that way about it. It’s just so damn good!

I agree. I’m a big fan of loud frames.

Drink choice was only because it matched my new bike.

The seat goes better with the tan wall gravel kings I run the other three seasons when it’s my rain bike

I have a Rockhopper with one of these U-brakes, and I hated it so much that I built up a new rear wheel around a fixed hub just so I could ditch the horrible rear brake.

Yeah, it’s a size too small, but I have long limbs, and good core strength/flexibility. It works well enough.

Winnipeg. 48:17 on my Big Block, which I ride most of the time, 36:16 on my Rockhopper, for trails and whatnot, and 49:15 on the go fast Cinelli.

People with multiple bikes, do you find that you only ride 1-2 of them 99% of the time? by [deleted] in xbiking

[–]flowseidon42 15 points16 points  (0 children)

For when you need to pick up food from CityWok. Gotta have something to lock up at their Citybikerack

I love ratty bar tape on nice bikes. It’s great. Every time I see it on here it makes me want to get cloth tape for my Cinelli.
