We should perhaps establish an optimum suspension travel for gravel

I'm going with 57.5mm

No wait, 44mm

well .. 44mm becomes 64mm

beautiful

Fingers crossed for a new axle standard!

will these fit on an arkose?

Half-boost = 13.5 x 105

Not sure what's worse, a gravel sus fork or a fucking 44t cassette for 60km round Kent.

Boost-Lite?

44t cassette for 60km round Kent

With a 53t chainring though, surely?

Not everyone is riding 60km round Kent. 90-95% tops.

as an inner? perhaps

I predict that we're all going to end up on this

the worse thing is new wide range cassette but still flat top chain

Wilko is a legend. He could get round a gravel race on that no probs. Win it too in all likelihood

In the article about it, he does mention

Mountain bike 2.1-inch width tyre on the rear and a 1.8-inch width on the front offers more security on those longer off-road trails

Which I'd like to see in action

haha bloody testers

Is a sus fork in the gravel thread more or less offensive than rim brakes in the gravel thread?

The very first bike on the thread have a lefty.

Graxle!

All this new sram stuff is another climate crime, literally for drive to ride beep boop fucks, £150 12 speed casette? Off road??
