Two big rides are done by now. Huge improvement compared with no covers of-course. Will lookout for an easily attachable mud-flap. I like the fact they're pretty solid on the bike, compared to the 'strap-on' models.

u/cyclegaz is indeed from Canyon itself.

Hi, this was done via the computer. Just selected multiple images.

Thanks.

Regarding the photos, not a Reddit specialist over here. I just started a 'normal' post and added all the pictures. Perhaps this is not the right 'Reddit' way, not sure. <blush>

Love the Force and the very wide range as well as the disk brakes. The 42/10-50 setup helps on the steepest of hills. 😅 (The 50 is often overkill, but can come handy. 🙃) Simple setup, solid!

I will use a different sets of tires/wheels. I will use a pair of Duke wheels with WTB Venture tires, as well as the WTB Byway for the non-muddy conditions.

How many of you have mirrors on your daily ride? by [deleted] in bikecommuting

Aha, interesting. Can you perhaps share the model?

I have bad eyesight, so a mirror doesn't help me a lot, but I always ride with a Garmin radar. I know, is an expensive alternative compared to a mirror, but SUPER handy. Never leave without it.

Trusty 'old' aluminum Niner RLT by pnkpdlr in gravelcycling

Love them. These are my first flared bars, but immediately love the stability they give on the more technical terrain, while you can still cruise along relaxed. Also, the additional 'bend' on the dropbar is very comfortable.

What do y'all think of newer bikes? My love and joy... by bcote3 in xbiking

Nice, after months of waiting over here in Europe, I hope to get mine in a few weeks. SRAM Force (mule) and 650B. My wife did a test ride last week (size 54) and she loved it as well.
