now that the cockpit is a bit more dialed, the bike performed excellently at BITW. the dorset singletrack was flowy and well-grown. one could even describe some of the more bushy sections as vietnam gravel. i managed to collect two ticks in total from these bits. the other one was big and the other one was small (they've both been safely removed).
i broke the factory seatpost clamp just before the event and had to resort to the slipping 30.0mm dkg again. here's the wood's cyclery pop up service guys sorting a coke can shim on it, which held perfectly. well done mechanics.
a 29.6mm dkg is on order and should finally stop the suffering.
