Here is the frame in question: https://shop.circles-jp.com/en/products/crust-bikes-nor-easter-frame-set I know it takes a mountain crank ... don't know how that effects things (sorry for my ignorance - I tried…
I'm looking at a new, high-end steel frame that has accepts a flat mount but has an IS mount at the fork. Should this concern me? Is the IS mount future-proof?
Unfortunately those Mavica only take skinny road tires. I use 2" tires and up.
Does anybody predict that in the future it'll be impossible to get wheelsets made for rim brakes that can run tubeless tires?
I am interested in buying a used Crust Nor'Easter and have a question about geo. I'm 6'0'' tall and have a proportionally small torso and longer legs (34" pants inseam). Should I look for a 58cm (L) or 62cm (XL) frame?…
Normally I'd agree, but in this case the reason for the disparity is that the ybb version is a brand new model that they only just started manufacturing. The non-ybb has been in production for a few years so they have…
Sold my bike over the weekend to fund the Moots. I've narrowed it down to the Routt 45 but can't decide whether to go with the ybb or not. With ybb and the wait is 8-10+ weeks. Without and the wait is 2-3 weeks.
I'm trying to decide between the Moots Routt RSL, Routt 45 Ybb, and Lauf True Grit. Very tough choice. Road the Lauf (race edition) and found it incredibly fast but with a very aggressive geometry.
Anybody excited about this bike? I'm seriously considering it but wonder how it would ride. The non-ybb Routt 45 bikes have gotten excellent reviews.
I am ordering a Ti frame and want to try and ensure my bike is future-proof... How big of tire clearance would I want for gravel and dirt riding with some deeper gravel and mud? I don't do technical MTB trails bit would…
Just took the bike out and it performed well. Both tires had lost about 15psi overnight so not bad for the first 24 hours. Love the 650b 47c tires... Plenty fast but so comfortable.
I just bought a bike with WTB Byways Tubeless Ready 47c tires. My bike shop set them up as tubeless for me and told me that over the next dew days they could lose some air and that I should check them before riding. Can…

Just paid my deposit for a flint grey 58T Secan. Got the last one slated for August delivery. Thanks for the help!
I looked into the Chumba and it would cost $1500 more for a comparable build to the Secan even though it uses Columbus Zona steel while the Secan uses Reynolds 853.
I hadmth looked at the Chumba... Looks like a sweet bike. How do you think it compares to the Fairlight?
I've narrowed my choice down to either the True Grit Weekend Warrior or a Fairlight Sevan (maybe a Rival 1x build with 650b's). I don't race... I ride long distance on and off road and commute. Nothing too extreme. I'm…
