Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

It is, a functional one all the same.

Yeah, I gave this to my brother and his wife for his birthday, looking at my tandem and have serious tyre clearance envy.

I haven't measured, but I reckon our Orbit could clear at least 26x2.35" slicks.
I have been eyeing up the new Continental Urban contact which are 26x2.2" and not boat anchors compared to big apples.

Sounds like a plan, I'm looking for 700x40 for the Galaxy.

Any one seen a Surly midnight special fork on something other than a 44mm headtube?? Photos would be nice....

@toastyrides on instagram has a rockhopper with a midnight special fork. looks really good, but I haven't figured out how to embed pictures from instagram

that is rad! Thanks.

So that's compatible with a 1" threaded headset?

Nope, MS fork has a 1 1/8” steerer.

Doh, should have looked more closely at the photo. More modern rockhopper than mine.

Yeah that hardrock comes with a 11/8th threaded headset....so just pop a Threadless headset in and you have many more options!

This guy put one onto his Steamroller.

I really like the look and been thinking about doing the same.

Edit: Can't seem to embed Instagram posts either. Anybody know how to do it?

that looks nice thank you.

Ive got a midnight special fork coming in the post and dont know what to do with it (accidently won a Ebay auction)

I know it's supposed to be "Dad-advist" but all I can see is "Da-da-vist"

Can't seem to embed Instagram posts either. Anybody know how to do it?

..it's a pain in the ass, the easiest way is to just screenshot the area and add this image to your post here like you just did; if you really want to have it without the little arrows / symbols on top there's sites like safefrom.net which let you download the images & videos of an instagram post -

Cool, how’s the shifting, fairly predictable?

Lovely!

I actually quite like it, i am using quite a small gear, so it doesnt shift up too soon. still there are times in an uphill where you are kinda stuck in a gear limbo, too fast for first gear, but second gear too hard. still very fun to ride
