Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

I'm coming from RTPs (Extra Light), so will let you know. Those are definitely the best 26" tyres money can buy. Significantly lighter than the Gravelkings, and no knobs/thread. Great tyre.

I love your unashamed love for these tyres

My only issue with them is once you've tried them, every replacement is a downgrade.

saw this beauty while strolling around the city today

Oh that looks noticeably nicer!

Agreed, especially when run tubeless. They’re a world apart from the Maxxis DTH on my other 26” bike.

What is it with these stupid, hideous dinner-plate jockey wheels? Pointless fashion or is there a claimed benefit?

There should be a claimed benefit. But small.
For the rest it is just something different. Well, you know the story.

the guy who rides this probably goes really slowly but beats me to my destination by running every single red light.

This was stolen last night - if anyone happens to see it pop up online - 1994 marin ratty but with nice-ish parts (deore/nitto etc)- metallic green forks - bullmoose bars. needed a good clean and drivetrain service so jokes on the fucker that took it ...sigh.

Not perfect, but pretty good:

That rack *chef’s kiss*

Bonus points for attaching the mudguard to it.

And an extra bonus point for running the dynamo light wiring through it.

End of level boss (cant post the other photos direct but checkout the link for the FOLD)

My only issue with them is once you've tried them, every replacement is a downgrade.

Fucking hell yes.

Especially from that to a Gravel King.

Proper functional beast with that triple and the rear rack... if only it had a saddle.

Ah nice one thank you! Not sure on size of tube, just an idea at the moment to convert a frame to 650b for a laugh...

cheers again,
Matt

THAT good? I’ve yet to find a tyre to equal the seemingly discontinued Thunder Burt speed.

I’m also a convert. Nothing else feels so voluminous & squishy.

Not brave enough to ride them on flint tracks though...

Ahh thought you were looking for a way to do it
