anyway here’s the bike
Took it to Epping today, hilariously saturated, which definitely made for some good laughs as people were taking spills in the bogs left right n centre.
Coincidentally a friend pulled up to the ride meeting point on a freshly flat bar converted Surly Straggler that he’d finished the day before. That’s now three other people I know in London who have flat-bar’ed gravel bikes in the past few weeks all seemingly separate from each other, Maj may be right, there’s something in the water.
@exteroceptive MVP for letting us rinse all the Epping slop off our bikes before heading south again. Best host, best ad-hoc navigator, best at falling into the mud ;P
On the more boring bike side of things, I definitely think some ergon-esque grips and the SQlab inner bar ends are gonna be the move. Which is a shame, I love the pink Oury look, the bar ends and inevitably boring black grips that i’ll get as ergon don’t make a pink grip will make the bike look less silly and bit more turbo than I’d like but I guess comfort is king :/
