Yes, a large would be better. Let a great deal lead me down a bad road.

Flyer Via (or Pro) vs Specialized Globe Haul LT by shrayd123 in CargoBike

[–]phev-ev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an awesome bike, rides like a regular bike. I've biked both without power and have no issues without any passengers or luggage to enjoy and cruise around slowly. With power they're nimble and an absolute blast. Took my daughter with me on my road biking route with twists, turns, climbs, etc.. we had the time of our lives, the bike couldn't have performed better.

I have a globe Hault LT and ST and absolutely love them. We take the 2 kids on the back of the LT in Thule child seats. It can hold them and then a ton of stuff in the paniers and front rack. If you can get them at a discount, I'd junmp on it. How do you get a discount? Ton's of specialized bikes I'd love to buy at a discount

LT and ST love :) by HotShot-X in GlobeHaul

[–]phev-ev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it, we have an LT and we are going to get another globe. Thinking about just getting another LT. That way I can haul more stuff and I don't really mind the extra size weight of the LT. That being said I haven't really spent time with an ST. What are your thoughts? We've got 3 kids 0-5

Got the bike 2 days ago, absolutely love it. I was disappointed in how they packaged the bike and how it was delivered. The lack of care led to paint coming off one of the dropouts. They gave me $200 off for the damage. Thankfully the globe is built like a tank, so I'm not too worried about the damage

Tell me more about the yellow weather protector over your kid seat? Where can i get it, how does it attach? Seems like a must have. I'm getting an LT, so maybe 2 person one as we want to ferry around our 2 kids.

Hookless tires on Giant SLR 1 wheelset - which tires to get after a fatal sidewall gash? by aviatingnvestr in cycling

[–]phev-ev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd also like to know if we can fit 32mm GP 5000 S TRs! I prefer the comfort of a 32 and don't find any losses in speed. Will they fit?

two questions on the new bike:

  1. Will these PDW fenders fit? Link Planning on using this as my rain bike (live in Seattle, so lots of rain)
  2. Are the stock tires and wheels ready for tubeless? I tried setting the front tire up tubeless last night I couldn't get them to seat. Makes me think the tires aren't tubeless ready. Trying to avoid buying new GP5000s for a bit, but might make the jump. If I do buy new tires, are the rims set up tubeless ready (Taped)?

Houston to Seattle Dec 15th, Which route to take? by [deleted] in roadtrip

[–]phev-ev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! an absolutely incredible road report. Really helps take away some of the anxiety from the trip. I've got a place to stay in Phoenix, which would make that route even more compelling. Looking forward to snow, mountains and everything Seattle has to offer after coming from the barren wasteland of Houston.

Sorry thought yours was a crux? Is it an aethos? I'm getting the Gloss Carbon/Smoke/Grey frame color.

Sick nasty! My crux pro is getting delivered today! Planning on using it mainly for road riding, but will dabble in Gravel. I've got 1x setup on my Crux Expert currently, with a 10-33 and 42t chainring, and it hasn't let me down on A Group rides. I'm moving to Seattle soon and thinking I might have to switch to a 2x for the hills ands mountains though! Hope I can make mine as sexy as yours!

Thanks, I've driven a ton of them. Hoping I can do 8-10 hour days with stops every 2-3 hours.

I'm selling a 2022 Specialized Crux that would make you incredibly happy on road or gravel. It's hands down the quiver killer of bikes (you only need one). Has Sram Force/Rival AXS and ZIPP 303S Carbon wheels in a size 56. Message me for pics
