    the unofficially cool MTB drop bar thread

    Thanks. I've raised the bars a little with a modern 'limp d*ck' stem (from ergotec) to sit a little more comfy in the drops and put a 25mm ofset to the seatpost to correct for the steeper angles on the seattube. Rides a charm now. balanced, direct, quiet and most of all its fun/carelessness...

    the unofficially cool MTB drop bar thread

    Designing a new monster cross bike based on the 2013 Kona unit single speed bike as we speak.

    Re: new BICE Croce CdT "bubi" gravel :) nice shot on the ambrosio rims even though they're not up with the lever of the other components on the bike. I like the look with the white pinstripe going on the frame. Personally I'd up the size of your tires for something more appropriate...

    Kona Rove Ti 59 -> Salsa Warbird 2 (a different crack at it) p.7

    all is true what they say about hope's being good. I'd prefer them over boutique hubs for their ability to remain unperturbed by natures mud and dirt. I'd like myself a stiffer rim than the alpha 340 or Iron cross (even though im a lightweight) for it's robustness and even superior...

    Re: Short ride review after 2 short (60KM) group/duo rides on the road and 1 long 150km solo off/on road. First up: The Warbird is one of the raciest gravel racing bikes i've come to know of. I would even argue they perfected the genre well before it became a established market trend. The...

    Re: Is newer always better? Not really. This is a boyish racer whereas the ti was a true gentlemen. however, I must admit. Salsa has got their bikes geometry pretty dialled! Compared to the Kona Rove (59) the Warbird (58) sports a: +lower BB +shorter reach +slacker seattube +taller headtube...
