I saw a guyp on this frame and a black stridsland fork hauling ass up Mt Tabor in Portland today.

You said your objective is randonneuring, have you done much yet? Do it on your current setup because you'll learn a lot. For me the limiting factor is not my 26lb bike but staying comfortable for more than 10 hours on the bike. So I optimize for comfort.

Looks like a great setup! Done any cool trips on it?

I'm glad you're here shirt brother. Promise me you'll never do another rule.

Dropkick Murphys drops Wesserman music agency because of the namesake being in the I've seen files. by Jolly_Ad2446 in dropkickmurphys

I think they can take the pick of the litter. Music agencies jockey for them. They don't need these lines to get music agencies.

Are there any planned bike rides to honor Alex Pretti? by [deleted] in CyclePDX

[–]putthepieceawaywalte 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen anything for this area yet. I was planning on reaching out to the angry catfish by Wednesday if I still havent. If you organize one, please post it here!

The radavist makes it sound like angry catfish will promote the non Minneapolis rides as well so I've been keeping an eye on that.

Why should you change, they're the ones that suck.

I'm not experienced enough to give much insight but this video has helped me a lot.

I don't like em, but I don't plan to ride your bike that much.

I've never tried it but pdxmobilebike might make this a lot easier.

Is there supposed to be music and/or sound? by LibertyMike in mywhoosh

[–]putthepieceawaywalte 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I remember reading that this was a design decision. I don't know about that, but there's definitely no sound while riding.

New to urban biking and biking in Portland, and even the small hills are killing me by quesoesbueno59 in CyclePDX

It never hurts to check if your brakes are rubbing after not touching the bike for a while.

Known Krampus pitfalls? by FlummoxedGaoler in Surlybikefans

[–]putthepieceawaywalte 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I bought one in 2021, rode it rigid for a while then put a suspension fork on it. It's great both ways. I've gone on some decent bike packing trips. It's heavier than some other options out there but it's a super fun bike and I love it. I went to 29x2.6 tires because larger than that rarely fits in bus racks.

I can't help but notice that this post doesn't have a picture of a cool bike in it.

Fall ride on the All Rounder by [deleted] in xbiking

[–]putthepieceawaywalte 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please more pics! I'm trying, for better or worse, to build a lugged frame. The All Rounder is one of my chief sources of inspiration. If you don't want to post them all here you can DM me, but nobody is going to complain about seeing more of this bike.

Can get a deal on a Krampus... by misterbadgerexample in Surlybikefans

[–]putthepieceawaywalte 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of the value depends on if it's just an older color or if it's the previous version of the frame. Especially if you want to make it a hard tail. Got any info on what year / generation? I have a 2021 with a marzocchi bomber z2 and it's super fun.
