  • I’ve put this together. Not sure what to call it … Alt bars, gravel bikes and bikepacking has blurred the boundaries now.

    I guess it’s a multi-terrain ‘exploring’ bike.. I like the old 90s term ATB “all terrain bike”

    It’s a Cotic Solaris - the original model .. in a rare 16” size - which they didn’t make for very long. Surly forks, stupid bars, 43c gravel king SKs on pacenti Tl28 rims. SRAM attack with Xt 9 speed. Middle burns sporting a 33t ring. Chain is too short so I’ve not ridden it yet - except up the street. Bars are amazing for climbing but low speed turns not so much
