In The Beginning: Genesis Owners

No just the frame, fork would be swapped

They're weird innit?
fwiw, wasnt a jibe at the set up.

It's a journey with no destination. It's a lifestyle choice with no subscription.

did you spray yourself or is that pro-fresh?

Sprayed myself. It had a burnt out seatpost before so paint was ruined

Matching frame pump you can just about see. Coz prolly

looks rad.

Thanks. Wasn't keen on the green initially but it's kind of grown on me

Like mold

Needs clear coat!

You mean mould?

I'm right in the US haha

2016 cdf 9 months old rear bearings loosen up every 10 to 20 miles got sick of gears jumping and bought hope hoops no problems since. Also zero grease in them when i first stripped it down. Headset also gave me problems coming loose changed that to hope no problems since

I reckon you'd get 38mm in. More room in the rear than the fork. 380mm a2c.

Interesting!

Do you think 38 would be the max?

Anybody have some 38c tyres I could try out in my 2015 Equilibrium?

ooooh subbed. love my CDF but dont ride enough.

Haha! In their defence, tough to have thru-axles and meet a pricepoint

Definitely on the fork. Rim width would probably be a factor too.

Rims I've got are 20mm internal so they're nice n wide, what do people think 38 (guessing that excludes any room for guards?) would translate to with guards?

700x28 with guards ;)

650c x 20c

Going to look at a SRAM Rival 1 2016 Reynolds 725 Croix de Fer (not sure if 20 or 30) this evening. Looks like exactly what I'm after - adventurey/gravelly/toury build - & could be a steal. Excited!

Yeah probably go for 25/28c on 700c, but for now I wanna work out what the cushier end of the spectrum looks like.
