Did your gravel bike get any presents this holiday season?
\n
\nFor Yule Otso Warakin got an Absolute Black 38t chainring (swapping out my Wolf Tooth 40), a Road Link, and one of the new 11-34 Ultegra cassettes.

\nThese gifts are also for my gimpy leg.
I bought myself a new bike! Not exactly for Christmas, more replacing a broken frame, but close enough to say it was my present. A couple of more red parts and I'll be done.
I purchased a second wheelset. The plan is to have a faster wheel/tire combo for routes that lack loose gravel. This will complement my existing wheelset with larger knobby tires for loose gravel and longer hills.
I am getting a Rival 22 rear der, front der, 50/34 chainring combo, and a Rival22 left shifter. My bike is going from 1x to 2x for better gearing in the mountains of Colorado.
