Gravel / Gravé / Gnarmac / Groad / ATB

Looks like its sold out now :(

That's just a tiny road biek.

Off to try the woolwich to kent riverside gravel tomorrow...

Is that following the Thames path? Have you got a route?

Was toying with doing both sides of the Thames path on Sunday, but thay might be better.

Nice ride in Epping this afternoon

Yep. I had a route somewhere. Pretty intuitive though. Going from the o2 head east, keep the water on your left. Theres a bit of a faff at woolwich. Ill tey and find the link

Damn cant find it. Its easy though. Was on the natural england website

Got it: https://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/en_GB/trails/england-coast-path-south-east/

Cheers for the pointer. Forgot about the new section out to the Isle of Grain that's opened. Might have to try that instead.

I've ordered one of these. I have 3 months to change my mind...

Boost148 Thru Axle Rear End - Added wheel stiffness and clearance for 29x2.4 or 27.5x2.8 tyres

Works great with a 100mm travel suspension fork too

Clearly they are reading this thread.

Oversized saddlebag with dropper post - aka just get a rear rack

Inb4 scoble just run lower tyre pressure

Why on earth!?

Here are some white roads of winter gravel in Latvia. Really enjoy riding those. Suitable riding conditions are not that common tho on these unpaved roads. When it starts to melt or rain these turn into ice rinks and also fresh unplowed snow is more core training than cycling unless fatbike. But when it is right, winter wonderland.

I just want a drop bar mtb without a high front end

Dreamy.
Too much of an ice rink for studded tyres?

Friend of mine has studded tyres. They actually slide more on anything less then pure, hard ice but then it is more manegable to ride on that, true. When it is semi melted with water on top, nothing works just avoid. 😄 I find these G One allround to be quite ok as winter tire, lower presures, latex tubes. Works for majority of conditions.

Maybe the studs should be replaced with miniature skates

mtb in terms of tire clearance or what geometry?

closest i can think of is trail donkey. i can run 2.25 27.5 tires and it is not much higher stack than my aeroad.

don't think super highly of their customer service but it is a cool bike.

This is a longshot.

Someone on here had a off white / great Independent Fab Planet X, 1x10 sram etc. im sure it was posted in here like 3/4 years ago.

If anyone has any links or direction Id greatly appreciate it...

Edit: It's rock lobster not independent fab. My bad. Cool bike nonetheless.
