Gravel / Gravé / Gnarmac / Groad / ATB

april - dynamo setups

Just as we are heading into peak daylight hours...cool

may - 650b v 700c

Can we add in mullet and reverse mullet gravel bikes as I think that will be a thing from Q2

Missing tyres, gravel suspension, alcohol carrying and of course panniers/luggage

Surely we need GRX status reports towards the end of winter? If owners survive.

I just assume everyone running GRX now has jockey wheels whittled down to perfect circles and shift levers burnished to a pure silver

Fucksake another component report to do . I'd rather be out there doing proper forum writing. Besides my GRX is 18 months old and I havent used it yet so its still too early.

Can I put a 40 on my GRX800 or do I need wolftooth

there is nothing left to buy

Mine still perfect after 2,000km.

Perfect?! It's filthy

You don't CLEAN a gravé bike, dahling!

Do you still have mechanical shifting?

You don't RIDE a gravé bike, dahling!

Surely you scrape the jockey wheel gunk off with a bottle opener that you've got so you can open your craft beer bottles?

Get grease on my beer?! u mad bro

Shit, speaking of beer. I got a can out an hour a go. Fucking work

Have we discussed lubes for Gravel?

Wet vs dry? Oil based vs wax?

I feel referred to

Perfect?! It's filthy.

It never seen the part washer or taken out since new.

On it’s 3rd chain, still original cassette.

Never overclean your bike.

You can't, it works, but my RD810 doesn't like it that much for some reasons

Wet vs dry?

Pff, you mean you don't do your own blend?

I’ve got Rock n roll Extreme LV on the gravel bike at the moment. It’s been on since December, still running perfectly & hasn’t picked up any grit at all as I’ve only been riding the road bike

Graphite, surely?

Have we discussed lubes for Gravel?

The real question.

I’ve wasted much time and money this winter on lubes. Going forward ... I’ve decided to front-load my time wasting with diy paraffin waxing (bike not balls).

Will update.

Wet vs dry?

Lol. Self zwiftilation and everyone has forgotten what outside is like.

Wet.

I’ve been using T-9, doesn’t seem to attract quite as much crap as others

Deep fried putoline?

You curate it?
