What's your opinion/feedback between the SK (43c) and the Challenge Gravel Grinder (42c). I currently have 44c Raddlers, and while they're great for the desert, loose, hardpack trails in my area, they don't quite roll…
For sale is my flat-bar Salsa Vaya (56cm). It's been a great gravel bike. I'm the original owner. Overall in very good condition. A few scratches consistent with normal use (see pics). Frame is in GREAT shape. NO dings…

I'll be in the Laurelwood area, but we're planning on exploring the Willamette Valley (hike & bike). I've downloaded the Oregon Scenic Bikeways Map, but looking for more remote gravel routes. Thanks!
Hey Everyone! I'll be spending most of the summer in the Willamette Valley, and wanted to get some advice on gravel/fire road trails in the area. I haven't looked online yet, as we just got our plans confirmed today.…
Agree! I see a lot more manicured single track in my area, that can now be done easily on a gravel bike with +45mm tires. The longer ETT and short stem, sounds like the Knolly Cache.
I ended up putting a down payment for a Ti Cache. April-May delivery. I went with a size 56. I finally figured out proper sizing for me (5' 10.5") after hours of studying the measurements of my current frame and the…

Is there anyone in the US that offers a similar service to spanner bike.uk? Where they walk you throuigh (hand-hold) throughout the design process. I've always wanted to try Waltly, and did initiate a discussion a few…

Thanks! That’s a nice setup. However, it’s still a drop bar frame, which he just put flat bars on (I think). The Norco Search flat bar version , has a different geometry (longer ETT), but unfortunately, only in…
Lots of great suggestions here! One thing I'm wary about is choosing a frame designed for drop bar geometry and forcing a flat bar onto it. It's basically what I'm doing with my Vaya. It works, but not without it's…
Looking for suggestions on a flat bar gravel bike frame. I've been using a Salsa Vaya with a long 110mm stem, but I'm converting that to a commuter/grocery bike. The terrain in my area works best with flat bars. Lot's…

Looks like the Ultrabite (tanwall) are only available in January. Will wait for those then. 🙂

Currently running 42c Resolutes in front and 45c Riddlers on the back. I am looking for 45mm tires, as my Vaya can fit those easily. Not sure I want to get too much wider than that, and have to incur the weight penalty.…
