What’s the fattest tire you can fit in that? 25? 28?

I put a Pirelli pero road 26 in there. Plenty of clearance front and rear. 28 would start to get tight.

new drivetrain for the hei hei
seems neat. guess i'm behind the times with the "old" technology but no udh on this frame so can't do the new stuff anyway. Still even using a 10-50 cassette because they were on sale.

Anyone have some spare parts bin disc brakes? Hydro, large (20”) stromer ebike that needs new brakes, looking very cheap.

I bought some discs off Amazon last year for really cheap - supposedly Avid, may or may not be knockoffs, but they've been fine. Something like $20 for two.

New bike day! Initial impressions are good. It feels suprisingly more sprightly when getting on the gas than my trance x does. I'm guessing this is mostly due to dropping ~400 grams on the wheelset. I knew the trance x OEM wheels were heavy, but didn't realize exactly how heavy until fairly recently. To be fair, there's also a DD Maxxis on the trance currently, EXO on the GG.

What size did you get? I'm right on the edge between 3 and 4 Originally Posted by snowaddict91

It's a 3. I'm 5'11" so squarely in the middle of the 3. One thing worth noting is that the 4 can fit 2 water bottles, the 3 can only fit one.

I’m on a 4 gnarvana and there is a lot of stack height so take that into account. I had 20mm of spacers under a 35mm rise rise bar on an xl sentinel and now have 5mm space under a 20mm rise bar. 6’3” for reference.

Guy I know picked up a Blur with the new transmission drive train. He said he hit his derailleur way more than normal. Got home and it measures 3/4" lower than his other bike...not sure which other bike because he has like twenty, but he's mostly an xc/road/gravel racer.
So I thought that was interesting since I cracked my Bronson frame right at the hanger point and never bent or broke a hanger or derailleur. Just many dings off the derailleur and the frame gave way.

I've read that the transmission der is huge. Even by 12sp standards. Originally Posted by jackstraw

What have you bought/upgraded today.
It’s a saddle, bro, and a damn good one at that. Same one I have on my road bike. How much, if you don’t mind me asking?
Nice looking stable, also. Ti Fat Chance, IF, old school Trek OCLV, what else? A Lemond?crab in my shoe mouth

Yeah, it is a nice saddle. $100 on ksl. looks brand new. Just rode an hour and a half with it, and it just disappeared underneath me. Looking forward to how it feels with a few more miles.
Yeah, i like my little stable.
98 oclv trek 5500, dura ace 9s
97 Indy fab steel deluxe
93 fat chance ti
18 yeti SB6.
The new saddle sits on a recently acquired Serotta Fierté (also a KSL find)
Couple of kids bikes.sigless.

Got it put together this morning. Hoping to get the first ride on it tomorrow.
