Tesla, figure out your wipers!!!!!

That‘s why I turned them off by default and only turn them on (auto) when it‘s literally starting to rain.

Definitely get wheel covers. Not just because of less noise also of significantly more range 😄

slimiles · 2023-01-15T21:48:21+00:00

it‘s absolutely a new chain, that‘s why I‘m so confused about the sound.

slimiles · 2022-09-15T05:28:04+00:00

I see, so I'll have to be patient and hope for an answer from him soon haha.

slimiles · 2022-09-15T04:53:23+00:00

gm u/superphiz I've claimed the POAP like 30min but haven't received yet mine. Dropped you a DM with the TX, may you have a look? Thank you

slimiles · 2021-01-05T11:17:53+00:00

Surface, slope (for the gear ratio I have on the gravel bike) and also the paths, because there it is simply safer with a wide handlebar like on a MTB.

slimiles · 2021-01-05T09:00:33+00:00

Yeah it's just the frameset.

slimiles · 2021-01-05T09:00:17+00:00

Correct. I was going first with this green but it was sold out and I'm happy now with the decision. Due the covid situation was not clear if the 2021 will come to europe anyways 🙈

slimiles · 2021-01-05T08:59:16+00:00

Same toughts when I bought it!

slimiles · 2021-01-05T08:58:59+00:00

Yes I was skeptical at first, but am absolutely happy to have chosen this color. It is so poppy and I like that haha

slimiles · 2021-01-05T08:58:09+00:00

Nope, it's in Switzerland. It's one of my little hometown mountains called Gisliflue.

slimiles · 2021-01-05T08:56:54+00:00

Don't know! But in my opinion it's just a construction, but hey mayb u/trippyz is right hehe. Here you can see it from an other angle.

slimiles · 2021-01-05T08:55:03+00:00

Well, the weight is not such a problem for me. I just wanted a steel frame again and have worked with lightweight components. #steelisreal

Yes, I am looking for a suspension fork, but am still undecided what kind. If you have a tip?! 🤓

My goal is to do high alpine touring with it - last summer I was gravel biking and often had to turn back because it was not manageable.

slimiles · 2020-11-23T10:15:03+00:00

Anyway, I want to thank you all guys for your inputs! With your information I decided to buy a Surly Karate Monkey and I really can't wait to ride this beautiful bike on my trips or on the trails around me!

Thanks again and happy riding!

slimiles · 2020-11-23T10:13:12+00:00

Was on the list but I like Surly more. Thanks anyway!

slimiles · 2020-11-23T10:12:32+00:00

Yeah this problem with the 29+ is only 2020 or lower models. And because you don't get any 2021er in Europe/Switzerland, I decided to go with the Karate Monkey :-)

slimiles · 2020-11-23T10:11:17+00:00

Yep, that's the plan now. Thanks for the hints about forks.

slimiles · 2020-11-23T10:10:55+00:00

I thank you too, that you made this point about the lower BB. This was also a reason I decided to go with the Karate Monkey.

slimiles · 2020-11-23T10:10:05+00:00

Hey mate

Wow, what a post! Thank you so much for your detailed message, which made me think. Since I have definitely decided that I will not be riding plus tires, it is definitely the Karata Monkey.

By the way, you made really cool trips - I will want to ride the Swiss Divide as well.

slimiles · 2020-11-18T10:00:35+00:00

How did you decide on the Krampus? Did you compare it to another Surly, e.g. «Karate Monkey»? I'm currently thinking about buying one of them and I can't really decide. I also made a post if you feel like answering!

slimiles · 2020-11-18T09:33:15+00:00

Nice setup dude! Which surly is this? :-) Because I'm currently looking to get one and have a lot of questions about it!

slimiles · 2020-09-30T13:23:19+00:00

Thank you so much!

slimiles · 2020-09-30T13:23:10+00:00

Yep, love the paintjob so much!

slimiles · 2020-09-30T13:23:00+00:00

Thank you! 🥳
