More bikes than rides

2.6 is the sweet spot, all of the benefits of 3" without the weight penalty.

I have to say, I don't think building a 2.6 front end was worth it over the 2.4 I had before

It's a little bit nicer with a rigid fork. Unlikely to notice with a big bouncy one :-)

My Oiz is in the post now. Sale+5% discount code, couldn't pass that deal. You'll be glad to know that I won't be able to put 2.6" tyres on it even if I wanted to. Time to book that mtb skills day thing.

mtb skills day

That's next weekend!

yeah, fair

Never mind that though. I'm working out if I can afford to buy you & @TvH a tandem

Do it!

this one, please

excellent gravel tandem

good choice - https://www.pinkbike.com/news/bike-check-katerina-nashs-bcbr-winning-orbea-oiz.html

Nash pushed a 36-tooth 'ring during the BC Bike Race.

Should have bought her legs instead. What a beast!

Feels good to have a bike again.
Another mtb clearout is coming...

I take it you've already ordered a carbon wheelset for that?

nice, v. curious to try it

Nah, gonna ride it as is till I can go back to work. Don't have anything else to sell and would rather not dig into my savings. But I do have a non plus carbon wheelset for it, just need an xd driver for hope pro 2 evo.

There's a full squish bike on the way though, right?

Yep, should be here in next few days.

That Stache is very nice IRL

Not sure what that says about your photography

There's a reason why I sold all my camera kit.

Rigid Chiner forks finally arrived. I'm well impressed with quality, the axle is a nice surprise.
Made by Tandell. Boost, corrected for 120 suspension.

Dibs all

Lol bit early for that

Fair

Finally here. They've run out of 2019 models and sent me a 2020 with no additional costs. For that I can live with the colours.
