Even after import they’re half decent prices! This bike deserves at least 50mm deep, the current 40s are a little lost and at least this bike has some clearance. The whole wheel building thing has put me off before tbh but I note your recommendation and shall explore.
Yes, I’m sold on 1 x now. Running the same cassette and therefore jumps on both this and the mountain bike make things pretty consistent and the gaps are as my legs are expecting. Want a Garbaruk 50t for the front but Brexit is killing imports but I’m working on something.
OT: Is that beast ULEZ compliant?! Proper tyres and mud suggest it’s being used as intended!
