Conclusions:
off-road is fun
on road with an ATB less so
Bikepacking is the future. Looks much cooler too. The orange fits my wapha.
Improvements:
less words
hand positions.
Coming from drops I put my hands ON the brake levers all the time because they "felt" like the hood position. Two blisters besides padded gloves. I have my eye on some stumpies
tyre width
I want to try less off road tyres but more mixed.
gearing
Felt undergeared as in, could use some more teeth up front.
waving
Roadies don't wave to mountainbikes. Even rad bike packing ones.
bike packing
pack more aesthetically to make Tijmen proud.
Do an overnighted wild camping soon
hope seat clamp
I have a sneaky suspicion the hope seat clamp can't cope with my above mentioned 150% weight because I kept slippin', slippin', slippin'..
-cranks
Emergency rival road cranks gotta go.
