MAJs gay bikes [she’s in her fitness era]

Is there a 29er here yet?

this is the thing, if i get a cross check i can put the 29r tyres back on the homer

at least this is what my fever ridden brain is telling me

Or you could put those tyres on a not boring 29er

With disc brakes

the issue here is the new flat has some architectural challenges for me to get a big bike in and out

I have illustrated this for you below

This seems more of a handlebar width issue. 800mm bars are crazy big for most people

Also, a dropper seatpost would enable easier indoor cornering

Most people don't need a 29er, but I'm conveniently ignoring that for the sake of project bullying

actually that's where you're wrong, most people need a 29er.

Now I want to rename the gravel thread again

too really apply the pressure you need to find me a all city JYD frameset or similar

till then im going to keep building the same ugly hybrid bike with 32-40c tyres every 3-6 months

Please tell your therapist this

I think a retro MTB build may have the answers you're looking for. Sounds like the only issue would be the mudguards, and retro MTB builds have to have mudguards otherwise they won't upload to the internet

This solution has been advised and subsequently rejected before. Clear case of self-sabotage. Hopefully the fever will get the poison out.

The main objection to me doing a retro mtb is I’m not a 30-45 year centerist dad // fisher millennial lad // crypto punk

I’m a 26 year old lass with hope left

OK cool sounds great you know if you want to attack me there is a PM function

I always had you down as a fisher millennial lad

anything but crypto.

hope you get feeling better!

@Howard would never build a retro mtb

Bazinga!

Bumped into @Qebrus snapping his laces as I headed out to get meds on a large amount of ibuprofen and paracetamol

Didn’t even think to check out the surly! Was more shocked it was the laces not the frame that snapped with the noises my bb has been making as of late!

First time commenter, long time reader. Love the thread. I have much envy of homer.

I have an all city Def Wish F+F for sells, Would need some brake mounts chucking on and has a press fit BB but its hella fun built up in 'tracklocross' mode. Got some pics somewhere if you're vaguely interested...

Consider me “vaguely interested” if it’ll fit my 5’11” self and your desired price 👀

@Qebrus it’s ok you were styling it out regardless, I’m sure the people of Peckham see Patagonia clad lads snapping their new balance laces on esoteric bikes all the time
