• I'm tempted to drop down to 32+PDW guards on the cross check, as 38s feel like overkill (although it's a comfy type of overkill so it's not all bad)

    I believed lightweight 32mm is the best in term of comfort and performance, my only advice on this build is to go full disc, especially if you wish to run brifter (Rival hydraulic).

  • Yeah I'm well tempted by light 32 on the Surly. I need to badger @amey for a go on his Rychtarski so I can get a feel for what those tyres are feel like (I know they're wider and 650b, but I mean feel in terms of suppleness).

    Why would you say disc on this? I don't want hydro, can't be bothered with bleeding and giant brake hoods. Granted if I had something built to replace my surly I would go with discs.
