• Wow, nice write up and great scenery! Those long gravel roads look like the stuff of dreams.

    How was the Wolverine? What did you like most about it? Anything you'd change?

  • Had a full-blown bromance with the Wolverine from day one. It's just really capable, and does absolutely everything I wanted it to. I must have had no more than 20psi in the tires on that first day and it still handled amazingly. I know a few people have had some grievances with the Horizons but they're absolutely perfect for what I need/that trip in general. They roll pretty fast on paved roads and float through rough stuff with no problem at all. Converting them to tubeless made a huge difference too. In general the bike was It's rock-steady when fully loaded, and actually very quick once it gets going. I don't think there's actually anything I'd change at this point, which is probably indicative of most builds I do (i.e. takes fucking ages but ends up being what I wanted). Oh and its comfortable as shit!
