That rig is on my short list. Hard to find a size L in DFW to test ride. Rode a M and felt like i was on a BMX bike! But very impressed with the ride. Seemed considerably more snappy vs the Diverge Comp.....
Thanks for the response. I rode a guy's cutty just around the block on asphalt after one of the local gravel rides and was impressed. Even with 2.1s on it, it seemed adequately fast for my blood. Gonnna take my garmin…
Wow those three are on my list along with the cutthroat and libre. I can easily ride a Warbird, Cutty and Diverge in DFW but getting a Libre or Revolt may be challenging. Both are in very short supply around here. But…
Looks great man! They sure make titanium an attainable option. That PRO GR is calling my name!
Polygamist!
https://www.velostreet.com/en/product/bicycle-fuji-jari-c-1-1-satin-carbon.26526/#prettyPhoto Whoa! Wonder what it will hit the market at price wise. That is one light bike if the weight is accurate. That is with WTB…
Grade is very much cross geometry, less relaxed than the other two IMHO. But it is a very nice platform. Have a pal with one and it is a fast graveller.
That Ogre is like riding a Cadillac! If you want a laid back bike to put in lots of miles, you will like it. Thanks for the response!
Any particular reason you did not choose the one your friend built? Thoughts on his bike as you have seen it up close and rode alongside him? thanks a bunch!
Looks great man! And my Domane weighs more than 18.5 lbs....
Motobecane is kinda the Taurus of bikes. Good value but you want to take the sticker off!
Nice!
"You feel the Jari is more road-like in geometry? Are you basing this off of your Trek 920? Looking at the numbers it appears the Jari should have a fairly relaxed ride geometry vs a typical road bike (at least…
I have the Jari 1.4 LE from Performance Bike. I am a big guy at 6'1" x 260 lbs and I find the Jari to be pretty flexy in the bottom bracket. Of course most aluminum and steel frames are flexy with me in the cockpit. If…
Thanks for that feedback. What I am really looking for is my Domane SL6 disc with the ability to run 40mm rubber. That geometry really fits me well. Sounds like this may check the boxes for me. May have to put a few…
I'm talking about the bottom bracket stiffness. The ride is smooth. It does have 40 mm tires on it so that helps a lot. Thanks man! I'm 6'1" with long arms. Looks like there is ample steering tube. I'd prefer to be a…
SteeleWheels, so when you say it is stiff, are you talking about the ride quality or the bottom bracket stiffness? Or maybe both? Trying to gauge the bottom bracket stiffness as my Domane is about the only bike I have…
Forgive me if this has been addressed (on p19 now!): How stout is the bottom bracket? Meaning, how much flex is there when standing and mashing? I'm a pretty big dude and can flex most frames (like my fuji jari) but not…
Hey Man, No I meant my bike! It's too pretty! Our gravel is tough on paint jobs and I expect my gloss topcoat would be toast. I love the Domane platform and expect it would make a great gravel bike. If I had not bought…
Man, my SL6 Disc is my main ride and here in DFW I would not consider riding it on our gravel rides. Would bang the heck out of the downtube. Our gravel is pretty loose and chunky, lots of shrapnel. Also mine came with…
