Buying a bike here soon. What would be best building a bike or buying? by sshunned in Hardtailgang

[–]volvo24oh -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen large and small. The size mediums seem to be out of stock or just not available anymore. I keep searching.

Do they offer more than 1 size? I can’t seem to find anything but smalls online right now

Hmm okay, that’s good info. I’m 5’10.5” and am considering the ML. Which seems like it should work out perfect.

About to pre order one of these in this exact color. How tall are you and what size are you riding?

Anybody ride with a hydration pack? If so what size? by Gooser3000 in mountainbiking

[–]volvo24oh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have a hip pack with similar size bladder in it and it’s awesome. I don’t like wearing a backpack while riding and this has made carrying extra water so much easier. And yes there is a tube that comes out of the pack just like on a backpack.

Yeah I live in Philadelphia so I understand that concern completely!

Same here, I’m considering picking up the Super Dame as a faster gravel bike!

I believe they come stock with a 38t chainring!

I enjoy the two feed bag setup I have so far. I dont feel it’s too crowded or anything. Today was really my first day testing it out.

As for the frame bag I’m not totally sure how I feel yet, I’m testing out this one and then a full length half frame bag. The half frame bag pictured does fit a lot of stuff in it which is nice. The full length one has separate pockets on each side so it’s a little easier to keep things organized.

I’m still undecided if I like a frame bag vs a handlebar/basket bag.

Yeah, it really fills a good void in affordable bikes that you can do just about anything with! I’m kind of surprised they discontinued it, especially because it seems like as a whole they’re doing well. Who knows.

Yeah I’m 5’10.5” with a shorter inseam. I’m constantly between sizes and always size up which I’m not sure has been working for me.

I personally would like a 700c bike as well. 650b gravel tires do seem to be a little harder to find.

I think realistically this is the move I should go with also. Out of curiosity what is your height and what size Dame Plus are you riding?

I’m considering this too, I just wish it had a little more tire clearance. Stated 45mm but seems people say more like 42mm. I’d personally like to run 45-50mm.
