set up with Dajia dirt drops Microshift 9. Kenda Small blocks, Tetro canti’s. Runs circles around my Rove.
😆Was wracking my brain to see if I missed some obscure model! If I named it, it would be “Matilda”, after the sexiest red head I ever knew in HS.

Not sure what "Roxanne" refers too?
Perhaps this might be called a “mutt”. It’s my ‘94 Kona Hot. I’ve done a budget build here. Converting an XT crankset to a 1x n/w. I coupled this to a 9sp 11-34 cassette and Xt dr. The range on the setup suits me fine…

I don’t know about the Resolutes but I’m enjoying the ride on my RoveST running TCS Nano’s. Definitely climbs better and has a cushier feel than the file tooth Clement’s that came with the bike. Sidewalls might not be…
