Great bike shoes are very stiff, and great walking shoes are very soft. I like my exceptionally stiff Specialized Recon shoes and I carry crocs on the outside of my bag when bikepacking and they work great. Could you…
Compass just released an update to their 42mm knobbie that looks pretty interesting. https://www.renehersecycles.com/shop/components/tires/700c/700c-x-42-hurricane-ridge-tc/

Can you just transition a current bike to 650b? Anything with discs can be swapped, it'll lower your BB a smidge though. I swapped my 700c wheels out for 650b Hunt Wheels with some WTB Byways for gravel and light XC.…
I would struggle to find a used bike that was still functional in Minneapolis for $100, $150 is the going rate here for a beaten up Schwinn Varsity after all
I saw a lot of aero bars at the DAMn ride I was in last weekend. There were even fat bikes with them, I just need to find a set that works well for me and my cluttered cockpit.
All City is located is full of gravel riders and the video is a night ride on gravel, pretty sure this is a gravel bike. They've already got cross stuff. Looks like a fat 40mm tire with a whiskey fork, it'd be nice if…
If you want to be a safe, a 35mm would have lots of space. When I looked in shops and tried with what I had on hand, it was much harder for me to find fenders wide enough for my tires. I have 650b wheels and 47mm WTB…
There will be 3 course check-points throughout the 240 mile day. Racers must make it to each check-point before the check-point cut-off time which will require racers to average a minimum of 10mph. If at any point…
At the end of the day, people have gotten away with riding 25mm conti's you'll be fine. People have preferences for different tire weights, feels, etc, but this isn't a course that will tear sidewalls or be…
I would disagree, this is the only hill I believe I've ever seen a walker on. Steeper gradient and WAY longer than most others. \n \nThe filthy fifty and I believe one other race also uses this hill, of 6+ attempts I've…
Oriole hill is a walker for many including me, so consider what you'll be able to bike up around mile 75. \n \nI've ridden everything from 30mm compass tires, 33mm challenge almanzos, 35mm clement Ush/mso, and this year…
The dropouts make me nervous especially on the fork. I have never used sliding dropouts, but I have heard stories about them working poorly. I do like the concept, but I would need to see it in use before buying one.
You guys mean 25, right? I cannot find that number anywhere and all the weights I see are close to 23 for a small or 25 for a large.
My old gravel bike had a dynamo wheelset I loved for commuting, and now that I'm on a new bike with a difference axle standard (12mm front and back)I'm wondering if I should build up a second set of wheels with a…
It looks like a great bike, but in all of my gravel riding I cannot think of a time where a dropper seatpost would help. If you want to bike pack and may occasionally hit technical trail the dropper post would be…
You will probably hike up most of Oriole Road, but is usually the only section I hike up. I use some pretty stiff carbon sole Specialized shoes and Crank Brother Candy pedals. I find the support offered by candies…
I just got a Haanjo Trail Carbon and it was $2170 after I got a discount from their chat support. I asked them to look up if my company has a corporate participation and they just gave me a generic corporate code to…
