Spesh Sequoia is quite arkose-esque

Niner RLT

Yeah its a CX race frame really.
Can always braze some bosses on but you'd need a new fork for front ones.
(I have some stainless guard bosses spare)

Ruined my Strada Bianca tyres on a gravel path over the weekend. What 36c tyre is good and not too expensive right now?

G-one speed 35mm?

Those contis heavy? I usually assume anything cheap, wired and from px is weighty

Yeah I think so but they roll nice

the new Fugio is so far from a CX race frame

the new Fugio

Not that one

Shame they haven't got them contis in 35mm anymore. They do run smoothly and are plenty grippy enough. Love em. Should've bought 2 pairs.

Another boring pic of my bike.

Finally happy with just about everything on it. Works exactly how I want it to. Carries what I need. Capable of riding anything I ride. Love it.

How long and what kind of trip do you do with that amount of luggage?

Deepest darkest Somerset?

Anything from long weekend to longer.

I probably carry too much but everything I take gets used. Carry tent. Sleeping bag. Mat. Stove. Change of clothes. Etc etc. Bit of wild camping. Bit of campsite.

Front bag isn't as big/full as it looks. But usefully expands so can take beers/food to wherever were camping in the eve.

Sinewave light charges power bank and seems to work which is great. I also carry a lot of water as I dehydrate easily. And TBH this is a lot of the weight.

This trip was through Exmoor and the quantocks.

Got it in one!

Sick, looks great!

That is lovely...

On a Dif note - I'm struggling to find a decent reasonably priced outer ring to replace my double Sram Rival. Anyone any suggestions? Those nice Blackspire ones are sold out in 110 BCD.

i got a plain J&L narrow wide from ebay for £11.50 - just for my pub / commuter though

I'm not sure narrow/wide rings will be the best idea on a double set-up...
