I bought an Obed (Ocoee) about a year ago and it's been great. No issues, the only time I had to deal with customer service was a decal replacement and they were great. The bike was also put together really well out of…
Powder blue would probably be my go-to color if I could pick any.
I think the "tubeless tires on Stan's rims" imcompatibility is outdated. I have put G-Ones, Soma Cazaderos and WTB Nano 40s on them and they have all seated well. The G-Ones and Nanos are tubeless-compatible and the…
I love my RLT Steel, but I don't think I could buy a bike without hopping on it first. The price is a bit of a premium compared to the others as well. If the Warbird geometries are the same, and you like the ride, I…
Aluminum and Steel versions of the RLT have identical geometry, but the carbon RLT is a different beast. I would look into those differences and decide from there. The carbon frame is much more aggressive, and like…
I got some of these. Had a hell of a time getting them to seat properly until I realized I could tug on the tire and get it 90% seated without any pumping at all. It went silky smooth after that. We'll see how they look…
I have the 3-star version, 59cm (6'2") 2017 model. I liked the orange better, but my bike shop gave me 10% off if I got the 2017, so I went with that. I'm extremely happy with everything. The 2017 geometry differences…
I have an RLT 9 Steel and I'm a big fan so far, probably 1000 miles total, mostly paved with some dirt/gravel thrown in. It feels really solid out of the box, and the tubeless pressures feel like a dream compared to…
Thanks for the review! How did the tubeless experiment go? The more I hear about these being easy to make tubeless, the more I want them.
Thank you for all the replies so far! Compass tires are on my radar, but I feel a little pushed away by the price and by the tubeless-ness of them. They claim to be tubeless but I've heard conflicting reports about…
Hi guys! I've been doing a lot of research into the 40-45mm tires, and I have narrowed the field down to a few I like. My bike has 35mm Schwalbe G-Ones, which are great, but for some rides around here I would prefer…
I've always been a fan of WTB and Vittoria tires, but the 35mm G-Ones that came with the Niner RLT are freaking great. They roll well on pavement and gravel, they have pretty good grip on wet pavement (a concern of…
