No flex with the GR 260, and I think the axles are propriety.

I'm 5"11, 32" inseam. Normally ride a 56cm, just finished my GR260, size M/L with setback Lynskey seat post and 100mm Thomson X4 stem, fits like a glove.
" Back on the subject of the Lynskey. One thing I have noticed is that I am getting a touch of heel strike. I ride clipless wearing size 43.5 Sidis. My left heel will occasionally just touch the chainstay. Only happens…
I knew some white guys from Jo-burg years ago, tough, very wary. I remember going to the beach, we just leave all our stuff on the sand, car keys, wallets, clothes, and jump in the water. They couldn't believe it, were…
Not big into rugby union, or league, or footy (Aussie rules) for that matter. Was right into the cricket as a kid, when all the legends were playing, the Waugh twins, Ponting, Shane Warne, Glenn McGrath, etc, etc, too…
Wow, you're like my doppelganger, from your size, crank arm length, mtnbike background, even stem length... Lol. I've got two Thomson X4 mtb stems to try, a 100mm/0 offset, and a 90mm/6 degree offset. I've also got two…
Nice build, looks great. A few questions: 1. How tall are you? Inseam? 2. What crank arm length did you go with? 3. Why didn't you want the Lynskey gravel forks? 4. Where did you get the Cowchipper bars, and how much?…
If it's any help, I'm 5'11", 32" inseam, and have ordered the M/L GR260 with 25mm set back seat post. Can't tell you how it fits yet, haven't received it, but all my other road/CX bikes are 56cm, as is the M/L (56.5cm).
I was going to get a size M/L GR260 as well. I have to admit that I'll be riding on paved paths and roads most of the time, riding on unsealed paths and roads less often. Was also considering the Lynskey Urbano... Not…
Hey mate, I'm ordering a GR260 from Lynskey, and I'm sort of between sizes. I'm 181cm, or 5'11.25", which puts me right between the M/L and L sizes. Do you have any advice? I don't have the opportunity to test ride, in…
