Yeah, I did some ocular inspection and came to the same conclusion. As it's intended for Shimano road/gravel flat mount, I guess it's what the good people at TRP modelled theirs after. I bought a pair today and will report back! Pictures from the real world of my LBS and hallway respectively.

Thanks for the help!

Edit: with my luck it's bound to be the K04 and not the K05 that I bought that fits...

That's what I thought after searching the internet (and ordered 25 pair of them).
Alas it is not the case :(

B05 on the left and F10 on the right for reference

Does the TRP F10RS brake pad(for Hylex flat mount) have a Shimano equivalent?

Just caught up with the last two months, really envious. I guess that optimization brain is good as long as you're trying to optimize the right things. It sounds like sending home your camping gear will make the trip more enjoyable and as you say, it's a vacation.

Just read Haley's post on IG and I felt really happy I guess. It's nice to see people do the right things for the right reasons.
Congrats and thanks for making the forum a nicer and more considerate place.

At a gym where we had a conference....

I think this is how they solve it, but in hindsight it's not quite as great as I thought, but maybe something could be botched for other racks/forks?

That's really clever, means more functionality for carbon forks for sure.

I like it! If you ride a lot of washboard -road I think it makes sense.

"New" build from Hunter. Makes me rethink my thoughts on the combination supension fork and drop bars.

Good thing that the Ingrid cranks burned such a hole in his budget that he couldn't afford pedals.

Edit: I regret my snarky comment. Could easily be quite a nice bike

Really fun project. I think pink Cannondale is 10/10

Day 1
Went home in the morning, took a shower, dried the tent, got a helmet, added mudguards.
Realised that I wanted some(in hindsight obvious) things like salt, chamois cream etc.
After working I took the commuter train to Södertälje (basically where I turned back home day 0) and started cycling towards Nyköping. I rode on something called Utflyktsvägen (Excursion road) that's the old highway that was used before the E8 was built. Very beautiful, quite a large shoulder (?) to ride on and cars at max 80 km/h. Stopped by a public beach for dinner and decided to get a bit further as I could still hear the cars from main road. Looked around for a good place and settled for the parking lot of countryside church. Got the tent up just before the rain started.

Came back home to Stockholm with the kids and partner staying in Finland so managed to do small tour with Geekhouse. I didn't like how it was handling while descending with heavy front bag, so I ordered a frame bag to get some weight further back. It's from a fairly local guy, L'atelje and in Dynema.

Day 0
Did a short loop to try everything out as a lot of kit was new and although I'm quite used to hiking and sleeping outdoors this was my first multiday bikepacking trip. Went north-west from Stockholm to the Island of Ekerö, took the ferry and found a nice place to camp by a lake.

Very envious of this! Don't have any tips other than take your time, give yourself a rest day if you need it and take the train.

I have etap and X1 on my S&S. Very happy with that setup. Builds up in 3 songs without fenders

Fantastic as usual!

Due to life coming in the way I didn't manage to do all the changes to the bike and riding I had planned, but I did cut the steerer, change bars and order a FM/PM R adapter and install the rear brake.

Braking with the rear brake with standard Shimano housing is crap. Front brake with jagwire elite links is really good.

So good it almost makes me want a Canyon!

Nice (almost to nice for bodge)!

I'm very happy with both my Venture max and Hylex. I really love the upscale -folding combo!

Yep!
