• Nice. I was very tempted by one of those. Ended up using a blb rack basket with the stays chopped down and mounted up on the fork.

    How are you getting on with the Schwalbe big ones? Have you set them up tubeless?

  • Yeah the pizza rack is a good match, altough it takes some fettling to mount it level (the stay is too short. I got the ILE Porteur bag also, makes for an easy commute and I reckon I can pretty much fit everything I need for an overnighter as well.

    I think the Big Ones are lovely. Fast and obviously very comfy. I have the Liteskin version, 440 grams - pretty amazing. Did a gravel brevet on them and I had no trouble keeping up with the roadies on the tarmac sections. I run them with tubes, think I read somewhere that LS don't do tubeless very well.

    This is the sad situation right now thou. 1265 grams of pure joy :(((

  • That looks very nice! I was really tempted to buy one but thought the tt was too long for touring with a dropbar. Do you use a short stem or have no problems with this?
