    jk. looks amazing. Jelly.
    Do I detect a lot of anger flowing around this place? Kind of like a pubescent volatility, some angst, a lot of I'm-sixteen-and-angry-at-my-father syndrome?

    fuck that noise.

    Got to love some unabashed bling!

    That fender fix worked perfect, she's finally dialed in.

    Similar stuff going on here. Just need to add a few small sections of 3M film. I’m not sure if we’ll keep this for my wife or sell it and get something more budget friendly.

    ^^^ for a sec here I thought you had sold me a red Stumpy just so you could go buy a blue one and I was impressed by your dedication to a particular frame color

    Ha, luckily I’m not very picky when it comes to color. And this one is a size S2.

    As mentioned, I got sucked in by the big sale and couldn’t pass up the deals on the components. In hindsight, while the prices seem really good lately, it basically just normal pre-Covid end of year pricing IMO.

    Yeah I sort of wonder if we just have selective memory, that being said, def scanning for deals today ��

    I went back into the land of the fat for Black Friday. Got a norco Bigfoot and some studded tires. Made the decision I’d rather pedal a bit outside more then pedalling a lot inside over the winter

    FYI, cane creek is doing 40% site wide, including eewings. $660 is the cheapest I’ve ever seen them.

    Holy shit thanks for the heads up!

    I bought mine from REI for $880+tax so $948. Extremely extravagant, I know, but 50th B-day and I was worried about missing out even on that deal. Anyway, hadn't mounted them yet so just returned and purchased direct from Cane Creek. They apparently don't charge tax so saved a cool $290!

    Beer's on me if I ever run into ya!

    Also just noticed Performance and others are doing them for $750 now.

    Kitsuma coil inbound for my gnarvana. Going to warranty the squelchy x2 then sell it this spring. Looking forward to extra traction. Was like $480 shipping with a spring.

    Ordered my wife a Revel Ranger. The $4200 price point for a great build was just too good to pass up.

    A few longer bikepacking trips on the schedule for 2024 so excited to snag this now.

    Congrats on the wings. I justified mine years ago that they'd be a, if not forever, then at least long lasting purchase. I still can't conceive of not using them on future bikes. Durable, light, and look awesome.

    The Knolly hardtail with the no good hub standard arrived. It came as a frame and build kit in a box which is great by me because I’m swapping things out but would be a shock to someone expecting the Canyon experience I guess. At least they included a couple little bottles of Stans.

    Frame seems nice though.

    The newer Trace hubs are supposed to have been improved over the old ones - like what I had.

    Might be a good idea to pull apart the freehub and inspect just before the one year warranty expiration...
