• Have been looking at scape goat and evasion numbers funnily enough

    The scape goat is to mtby for the use case, it’s for this reason I also sidelined the ogre. It’s also why I’m questioning a Homér

    It’s not their tyre size or anything functional, but something which looks like a mtb is a big Nono for “locking up”, mentally, for me. even with rim brakes and crusty parts. Silly really, as I literally, never, lock my bikes up, I just wouldn’t cycle if I needed to leave it.

    So maybe it’ll happen

    The evasion size L is pretty spot on for me, but it’s built around 650b, can take 700x50. It’s currently in the pile of “possible numbers to use”

  • Trying to think what makes a bike look less mtb-like

    Horizontal top tube and non-sus corrected fork + v brakes? I guess that just makes it look like an old mtb?
