Unlike you sponsored bitches I am just using the bike I have #warrantyreplacementcrashycrashy.
If it can take 50mm tyres I'll have 50mm tyres on it.
But yeah, just seemed like a high level of problems.

It's hard. You can ride it all on 40c tyres, but doing that in the dark after 4 daya racing will not be easy and you will get more fatigue.
Sofiane was on a niner air, so rigid with 2.2 racing ralps.
Everyone has different ideas of what is suitable. But personally my hardtail weighs less that most people fancy gravel bikes and the fork locks out, so what is the draw back? None! Then when you get to the descent you can point and shoot. Plus at 3am wheb knackered you dint need to worry about your line, I can just bulldoze over shit with a 2.4 front tyre.
This stuff is hard, why make it harder.
Gravel is just a marketing illusion
