Have run Pirelli's (Cinturato Gravel H and Gravel M) as well as Vittoria Terreno Dry's with Stan's for several years and no seepage here.
Nice setup. How did the race go for you? What would you change on your setup after your experience? The weather was pretty damn good for early June in Kansas.
Need some collective brain trust from the gravel gurus on here. My son rides a 1x and is leaning towards using a 48t chainring with the 10-52 cassette. The route that I am seeing from Ridewithgps shows only one climb on…
Depending on the day, my son will be riding either Schwalbe G1RS 45 (less mud probability) or Schwalbe G1R 40s.
My son is racing in the 200 after chaperoning me on the 100 last year. My daughter in law and I are playing bike mechanic and sherpa for him this year. Will be curious to see how the north course rides as I have only…
Thanks for those links. The link from ticycles appears to only be for extending brake lines and isn't a quick connect fitting like the Formula speedlock as in the link below.…
Are there any other manufacturers besides Formula Italy who make quick connect fittings for SRAM hydraulic disc brake lines? If there are other manufacturers, has anyone tried them with success as measured by one, ease…

Volsung wrote: Was bored and checked Kinekt and Vecnum as well, only seems to go to 80/90. Your best bet might be a lowered 35° Redshift if the stem isn't already slammed. Thanks. I tried a Redshift high angle stem 80mm…
Does anyone on the forum know if such a thing exists? Cane Creek and Redshift don't make stems that short and I don't find any on an internet search.
All the best on your FIRST gravel event this coming weekend and your continued recovery from hip replacement surgery. One thing I forgot to mention in my report was that the Allied bike design and manufacturing facility…
So this past Saturday was the Big Sugar 100 and Little Sugar 50. I had deferred my entry for the 100 from 2022 due to a bike crash and subsequent hip replacement in mid-2022. I rented a house about 3/4 mile from…
Sounds like you had a great race as well thumper88. Are you headed to Gravel Worlds next month?
1. Keegan Swenson 2. Alexy Vermeulen 3. Brennan Wertz 4. Payson McElveen Keegan is unstoppable! The other three were within 18-19 seconds of Keegan, easily his closest race this year. Will Keegan race Worlds in Italy in…
Has anyone tried these new gravel tires from Maxxis? Looks like a fairly unique tread design. I'm curious to hear other's thoughts.
I rode, walked and rode some more at Unbound this year. I did the 100 miler. Yes, the hike a bike sucked big time because it came so early in the ride. But that is part of the allure that draws gravel grinders from…

How many of you reuse sealant? Is it worth the hassle? What are your tips and tricks if you do reuse the sealant? I assume contamination really isn't an issue or is it? What else should I know? Sealant isn't cheap and…

I realize this post is more than 2 years old, but is the bike still available by chance?
