There's also #nogravel in Gloucestershire, which is good as our mean tyre width was only 30mm

I’m going to buy some whiskey ones I think. What size do I need?

If it helps....I fucking hate the zipp flared drops I bought. They feel shit

After some discussion a while back about carbon gravel forks and how none were available I see there is a Ragley fork at Wiggle which appears to be the same as the bombtrack ext V2 and the Cairn adventure 1.0, but cheaper and actually in stock.

here is a gravel specific question; has anyone used G-One Bite and G-One Ultrabite on #UKgravel ? I was thinking of ultrabite in front and bite rear as all year round combo in 45c.

I use 650 G-One Bites a lot, and have used the 700x40c Ultrabites for a bit. I found the Ultrabites noticeably draggy on the road, but on singletrack they were excellent. Unless I'm commuting, I leave the 650 wheelset with Bites on the whole time tbh, most rides 50/50 road/off

Don't you have an XC bike?

yeah but I am also getting a gravel bike

So why not have faster tyres on your gravel bike and save the knobblies for the MTB?

Gravel bike for speed, XC bike for tech.

He's going to fit DH casing Minions to his XC bike for the really gnarly gravel
