I'm strongly considering going tubeless on my Tamland 1 after a bad run of flat tires over the past couple weeks. My wheels are "tubeless ready" according to the manufacturer. They are Weinmann U28 TL, Double Wall 32h…
I'm not sure what the gravel is like out there, but I'm currently on Strada USHs that came on my Tamland 1. I've had a recent string of flat tires with them. I'm not a light rider at 230lbs and it may have just been…
Al, I apologize for the delay. I fell off the side of the earth for a little while. I'll try to get some pictures up within the next couple days. I'll put them in the 2017 Raleigh Tamland thread here since they will be…
Well, I finally pulled the trigger. I picked up my 2017 Raleigh Tamland 1 last Friday. I went with a 60cm based on the input from my LBS as well as input from Raleigh themselves. They felt it would give me a more…
It's also worth noting that the AnyRoad CoMax is not a full carbon frame (if that matters to you). It is a carbon fiber / fiberglass frame. I'm sure its mostly to keep the cost down. I have heard of some issues with the…
Has anyone seen a 2017 in person? None of my local / regional shops seem to have any in stock, regardless of size.
I test rode a Sequoia Elite at a LBS over the weekend. I didn't want to take it onto any gravel or dirt out of respect for the shop, but it rode really well on pavement. I can imagine the 42s on it would take good care…
RoverAl, The Tamland is going for a little over $1,300. Great price considering the MSRP is $1,900. DrSpoke, I apologize for the confusion. The bike I pictured was not mine personally, it was just an example of the…
I have the opportunity to get a leftover 2016 Willard 2 at a great price. It however is a 58cm. My current bike measures as a 58cm, which I think feels a little small because there is little seat adjustment compared to…
I was leaning towards the Tamland 1 until tonight. I got a quote from another LBS for a 2016 Specialized Crux E5 X1 that was very comparable to the Tamland 1 quote. I'm still unsure if the 1x setup is right for me since…
I think I am continuing to narrow down my selections. I think I'm going to end up going with a Raleigh Willard or Tamland. My local dealer offers them at too good of a price to pass up. Now, my next question in sizing.…
I think I've ruled out the carbon Anyroad Comax at the point. When I took it for a test ride it felt great but I've read about some of the frames cracking. Since longevity is a key to me, I have to ax it. I am going to…
Thank you all for the responses so far. My biggest concern really is longevity. I'd like this bike to hold up for a long time. I'd love to get a carbon frame for the weight savings, but I'm a little worried about how…
Sorry for the long post in advance. I am slowly trying to get back into cycling for fitness and for sport. I have only really ever cycled recreationally on my dad's old '78 Fuji Sports 10 road bike. Where I live now I…
