Hey interesting response. I actually ended up buying a Specialized Seqouia because of price reasons. Realy like it for the most part but it is a bit on the heavy end for a gravel bike but geometry and everything else is…
Short gravel ride this morning in the Smoky Hill region of central KS
2017 Specialized Sequoia. Handbuilt wheels, Rogue Panda top tube pack and Lizard skins bar tape are the only upgrades but I love all of them.
Well I've been on new wheels for a 3-4 weeks now. They are Pacenti Forza rims, 24 hole front and back, Sapim cx ray spokes front and Sapim sprint rear, Sapim nipples and Powerway hubs. Tip the scales at just under 1600…
Has anyone had any first hand experience with exactly how wide of tire you can run on the Sequoia (700c)? Also has anyone monkeyed around with 650b on a Sequoia? Keep wondering if there would be any possibility at all…
I ran the Compass Snoqualmie pass for about 500 miles and had decent luck with them. In the end they got a little slit in the tread that wouldn't seal up with orange seal. Felt they were a little too fragile for some of…
Hey Erik_A how did you get your hands on just a fork? I would like one too... Thanks
I decided to go with the Pacent rims, sapim cx ray spokes, and powerway hubs. Very excited to get rid of my heavy stock rims and get on these things. Oleritter is building them for me. I'll let you guys know what I…
I have been running the Compass Snoqualmie pass standard casing tires tubeless. Set up tubeless quite easy. Like them quite well. Due to some circumstances I had to take them off my rims quite a number of times and I…
Hey guys wanting some advice from some of you who have had first hand experience with either of these rims. The spec is very similar. I can do do a 24 hole rear wheel with the Forza. Hydra has got me smitten with its…
I'm looking at a set of Mavic ksyrium (used) all roads with a 19 mm internal rim width. I like to run 40 to 44mm tires but at times i drop down to a 35mm (currently running compass snoqualmie 44s). Will 44mm tires be…
Firm on price? Who pays shipping?
Are these still for sale? Pardon the newbie question but I have a 12x142 rear thru axle could these be easily converted to that?
I can understand your concerns on the compass. I had a few myself but could not find enough info really either way to make a decision. So I figured I'd buy them and find out first hand! Coming from over 600 gram tire it…
I just recently put the snoqualmie pass standard casing on my specialized sequoia and I'm loving them so far. Have only had a chance to do 10 miles mixed pavement sand ride on them. I switched from the specialized…
Hey guys thanks for the input. After I started this thread I saw the compass snoqualmie... Think I'm gonna roll with them for now as I need some flotation but not really any tread and I want something lightweight for…
Now maybe to add another tire in the mix... I know I said I didn't want to go past 40 but I keep eyeing the Compass Snoqualmie 44. Insanely light for its size and I think it would perform well on pavement. I don't feel…
I'm trying to decide between these two tires. My typical rides are 80 20 gravel pavement. On some of gravel there are some sections of pretty deep sand. Concern with the GK is that is hardly wide enough for some of the…
I might add the sawtooth does roll good and has decent traction. It's just that I can shed around a pound of rotating weight by changing tires.
Interesting thread here. I have the sawtooth on my Sequoia but am looking to shed some weight off of the 28 lb bike and with the tires weighing over 600 grams each I thought I'd start there. Was thinking of maxxis…
