I have tried their hazy and I do think that it is one of the better IPAs. I'll keep an eye out for the stout.
Non Alcohol IPA.
One thing to consider is how your sleeping gear is going to get along with your tent. I use various quilt sysmtems, one being an old Elightened Equipment Prodigy. You don't exit such quilts from the side like when you…
I have used Time for years on and off road. They provide a rather severe engagement which I really like, even on gravel. (I often use this drop bar bike on single track.) Time was recently sold to a rather new French…
Not a lot, but I have seen it. And I don’t know if their tires were mounted correctly or not. But I will leave it up to the OP to say whether or not he plans to run tubeless.
The OP does not state that he is trying to set up anything tubeless, only that he is looking for a tight fitting tire. So, Simplemind, are you looking to run tubes with your set up?
The Goodyear Connector Ultimate is the tightest fitting tire I have ever mounted on my American Classic Hurricanes. It was silly hard and then a total pain to get the bead to sit. It is a little more egg shaped than the…
Rubbing on new pads is not normal for new hydros that have been properly set up. (It could be possible that there is a bit too much brake fluid in the system but not likely if no shop ever bleed them.) New brakes are…
Two things, well actually three. First, don't push the pistons back without the pads in. You don't want to damage them or the seals. Secondly, don't center the pads over the rotor, center the caliper over the rotor.…
That would probably be the Nationals in Verona right outside of Madison. A big issue there was that, before the pads wore out, one would have to dismount and adjust the brakes. Pretty much everyone with discs had…
I use the Revelate Egress solo on my fat bike and solo on my drop bar gravel/tour bike. I have a lot of room to spread stuff out on the fat bike bars, so I use the Egress as designed there. There is not as much room on…
I like the side pockets on the Pinon Pocket.... The Egress does not have those, but it does have a padded inner pouch that you can remove.
I like my Revelate Egress. Not the best as a stand alone bag but have never had an issue using it that way. https://www.revelatedesigns.com/index.cfm/store.catalog/handlebar/EgressPocket
I think it is correct to add that many tires that are intended to run tubeless also have a different bead shape to help them snap into place on non-UST yet tubeless minded rims like those offered by WTB and once…
Mech disc brakes are easy to apply, and they give great feed back. It is when you are going down hill on a 40 pound fat bike with 160mm rotors that mech brakes require a lot out of your hands....more grip.
Too bad the company just folded.
I know Kettles well, but have not been out for a few years, as domestic bliss is really limiting my ride time, and mandating more local rides. Both the NRB and ST seem like solid deals....but I kneel to steel.
I have a 2014 Rove. I don't mind the steel fork, and I think it is even beefier than the current P2. I ride pavement, rail trails, and single track, some rather technical. I am not sure where you are, Sparty...but WI is…
I would worry about a creaky weld, but that is just me. (I have had a lot of rims with metal bits in them, probably from drilling holes for spokes and valves. I also had a friend who took his bike to about 5 shops to…
Sorry that you got a bike that either got a part banged up either at the factory or during shipping. But yea, it is just a hanger. Every bike out of a box should have hanger alignment checked, just like derailleur…
