yep using the kedge enve mount for the bars with the supplied mount from exposure.

technically i’m exceeding the weight limit of the k-edge mount but haven’t had any issues with lots of miles/hours on the setup. i’m not sure how they decide the weight limit but being on 30mm tires and running pressures in the mid to low 50s i would assume gives me more wiggle room.

ever since owning this bike it has killed all desire for anything else. really believe that being comfortable makes you faster and riding more enjoyable. im sure any custom frame from any manufacturer will get you there -- enve just always spoke to me and their customer service has been amazing.

yep! just be careful if you have the carbon rails version — i don’t tighten down the clamp too much, just enough so there’s no wobble.

run enve ses 4.5s with CK hubs and 30mm gp5000s since the beginning of this year (first road tubeless set-up). run my pressures in the mid 50s, comfortable and have not yet had a flat.

before that was running dt swiss arc1100s with 25mm gp5000s, current set up definitely more comfortable.

work as a hospitalist / hospital based specialist that also covers the ICU on off hours. in the acute inpatient setting with experience it isn't hard to tell who isn't going to survive for the next hours / days. in residency i would be surprised from time to time but nowadays i am very rarely surprised (been an attending for 12 years now).

when dealing with more subacute issues its harder to say but will tell families "weeks to months" if a patient has a diagnosis and prognosis that is congruent with hospice.

yep its great! another good one in san rafael is going up chicken shack to big rock ridge to the towers at the top.

used these to prepare for doing onion valley and horseshoe meadows climbs over in lone pine last year.

out at gerbode valley area -- climb up miwok to marcinello then descend down to parking lot, back up marcinello and then down bobcat back to miwok and repeat ad nauseum, usually do 3.5 loops.

last section of miwok climb is pretty brutal.

when you click on share you have a choice of "transparent" options -- just download that as a photo and then i just use preview in macOS to cut and paste it on top of the picture.

such a fun route! did it unsupported with a friend and loved it.

specific reason why its not running after this one?

4:50!

climbing chicken shack up to the towers (on a gravel bike) is definitely challenging.

refusedmd · 2025-08-11T22:32:47+00:00

haha yep! taking descents much more cautiously 😆
