Using every conceivable means of carrying stuff except a rear rack

It is Scoble's bike

Scoble doesn't do Ortlieb.

It's a big frame so maybe big rider which might mean big feet. My feet strike rear panniers quite easily..maybe it's the same here?

I'll try to imagine for a moment what it's like to have big feet ;-)

You need sensitivity training! ✌️💚

35s = gravel bike?

35 = comfy road.

Yes

Who has fitted the Brand X 27.2mm dropper? I think it's designed for gravel bicycles, but the description does not make it clear how compatible the remote is with drop bars.

These are the ones you want then. I have pair and they are by far my favourite shoes. period.

This one?

its the type of lever/clamp size that defines it as for drop bars i believe

Red shift seatpost covered in bag straps? Let's get aero!

That better

I didn't know the protective rubber boot on Ekar cranks was a thing

Holy Schmolkes, they are ruining their reputation with a catalogue frame.

Yep they come with the cranks

Marathon Almotion confirmed as the ultimate gravel tyre.

€2200 frameset

Yeah given their road bars are around €500, there's no way that frame is made in the same way in the same place

whos bike is that? its nice

Yeah a really well-considered build, down to the SON hub dynamo. Local customer.

Your 2 piece frame bags consistently looks really good

Got to be 'aggro gravel' ready, I guess

Thanks! It’s been a long road, so it’s very satisfying for things to be coming together.
