Gravel / Gravé / Gnarmac / Groad / ATB

I got this frame on bikediscount.de for £120 (I think) and the fork for £30 unused on eBay.

Did they just did a Cannondale?

Nah its better than that, anything is better than Cannondale atm, whats funny is that its longer and lower than their Aero road bike couple of years ago

Gotta keep the serious gravel racers on board

longer and lower

Bang on trend, just wait until the 65° head angles start arriving.

Those bearclaws are hot. Brutal forks are a good look with the fat tires.

Pornworthy....

WOW!

What’s the feelings about sticking a 1.1/8th steel fork (surly straggler) in a 44mm Tube?

Reckon it’s going to look gash? External lower cup..

Will use 65ob wheel/tyre..

Am I worrying too much?

Rest of the build is tip top tidy so don’t fancy it looking awkward

Google Surly Midnight special - it has something similar to give you an idea.

Hmmm, yeah that’s not nice.

I’ll stick to plan A!

Got two nights kids free with brother and sister in law and dog for some gravelly/ forest rising. Ideally 2 hours from Manchester.
Dales?
North wales?

Would like to ride with doggo a bit, plus some longer stuff for me and brother in law.

Want a cheap hydraulic gravel bike? Look no further!

Should I change the thread title to "Just get Ed's Arkose"?

Did the North Downs Way, now to do the South.
