That your new ride? How you liking it?
After fitting Teravail Rampart with tubeless, it a hella lots of fun.
The geometry on paper is very slack (70.5 head tube with 50mm rake), but it felt much more alive with the 650b that it's build with in mind, even when I have to fit 120mm stem on it (!!) to get the reach right.
The original 50c tyres were 670g each with 225g inner tube, which much to my amusement, was fine.
Obviously better tubeless naturally.

Have we asked you to justify this boardman yet? With the NFE, Oak and cycles in motion and the outgoing arkose.

Which mudguards are they please ed?

That looks proportionally fantastic even with the 120 stem. With 70.5 and loaded, I imagine it'll feel well balanced loaded in crappy terrain. What's with the downtube bottle cage, looks a bit close to the guards?
Was thinking of one of these, but going to try out the Ribble Adventure 725 this week (they have a showroom in Bluewater) as it'll replace a similar bike but with more modern geo.

Teravail Rampart
do these come up as stated width?
cannonballs apparently come up a little short. 40c is actually 38 on a 20mm internal rim.
Bascially i dont know which one to choose.. -
Where did you source the Rampart from? Trying to decide in these or Horizons, with on triend tan sidewalls.
