I would worry about clamping on on a bar in areas not engineered for clamping. Plus the clamp diameter may be too small to fit other than on the ends of flat bars. I got some of these from eBay and like them a lot.…
Have you considered that gravel tires inflation values will exceed what an Arch or Flow can handle? I suspect both max out at around 40 psi.
I have not heard good things about the Crest Mk3s. Primarily from the Just riding Along crew. It seems Stn's choice to make them wider, lighter, and out of a different alloy has caused lots of problems for many riders.
Got a better photo of the fork today. The tire is the 40C Gravelking on the 27c internal Easton rim. Still a good amount of room.Same tire and rim combo on the back it and I had no clearance issues with it.
I have basically the same bike, a medium Lynskey Cooper that only differs in cable routing. I got the Niner RLT rok. I love love having the two fork bottle mounts. IT can handle a nice big tire (currently a 40c Gravel…
As of of today, Sept 3 2017, their website is better but still not perfect. The text description for two versions of the Gravelking SK both state "And tubeless compatible up to 60 PSI!" even if the little blue box next…

Glad you posted this, getting me to join RMCC as well.

My 2004 Independent Fabrications Club Racer I bought new. Original steel fork replaced with a Whiskey CX Disc one a few years ago. The full fenders got annoying with the toe overlap so I have taken them off and promise…

Right now Lynskey is having a sale and the Cooper CX from them is ~$500 more. Might be worth it to buy it direct and not have to worry about import duties and dealing with DLH deliveries.…
Considering a 55 carbon Warbird. Does anyone know if there is toe overlap in that size? What about in the 56 and 53? Heck, in any of the sizes. Understand crank, shoe size, tires, and cleat position can impact this. My…
