  • How capable of a bike do I need to do this ? 30c tyres too ambitious?

  • I'd think yes, Don't you still have a MTB?

  • You'd die

  • 30c tyres too ambitious?

    Yes you'd have a shit time.

    For an example of how shit that time would be, go back to the beginning of the thread, and read @Dammit 's ill fated attempt at the end to end?

  • It will be less comfortable. @Dammit was on a retro rigid Klein MTB and is asking about what modern mountain bike he should buy...

    I think, a regular 100 - 120mm travel hard tail is the perfect general bike for this. The less bouncy from there, the more uncomfortable the more, the harder work.

    If i rode this on 30mm tyres on a gravel bike with drops my wrists would be mullered after 40miles. Edit 20.
