Thanks!
Adi (10) wants to ride trails & has a decent enough bike to handle easy single track. May take her to the valmont bike park some this summer.
Yeah prolly too big, sorry missed that detail.
Its almost too big for me (30" inseam) so thats why it never stuck.
Nice frame though. I can't find anyone that wants it.
Sounds like the lizards got to you. *I don't need new rims, but look at those shiny new ones...*
i'd been considering them for a new build anyways. if i can save $300 that's sweet. [edit: its also a wheel size i don't currently have, so ive got to buy something *regardless*]
also note, i've been on carbon wheels since like 2010 or '11. not for all bikes, but i started with XC. i *still* haven't had to true them.

Good Afternoon!!
I thought I was the only person in an office building where I was working this morning when I pooted.
Turns out, I was not.
She was hot.

what diameter/spacing do you need exactly?
i'm running 26" currently. new build is not gonna be 26".
that doesn't really answer the question, but ok.
OWN IT!
check your pm's kid
I have a Rocky Mountain trailhead frame that was always small for being a medium.
wagon wheels.Ooooooh, I'm doubling down on this one!
checked and replied, sport.
kid. heh. I must have 20 years on you....

i'm sneaking in while everyone is still distracted by hating on e-bikes.
well happy mf'n bday old fart.Not yet... but as of yesterday, I'm one year closer!
The lizards sure are doing a number on our heads. I regularly catch myself daydreaming about wagon wheels too.
FFS, I had to buy a whole new bike just a year and a half ago because I couldn't upgrade just my frame because I was on an "obsolete" wheel size. I went to 650b because there weren't really any wagon wheelers I was interested in at the time. Now, there's a whole slew of wagon wheelers I'd be happy to ride, but once again, in order to do that, I'd have to sell my bike with an "obsolete" wheel size. effem I say, I'm happy with what I have now. I just need to check my head on the regular and remind myself of it.
sheesh.
The rims and the company sound rather cool. Downtime podcasts have done 2 episodes with the owner Dustin Adams. The company seems very unlizard like with its approach to how it is doing things. Dustin was involved with some Asia carbon rim makers before he started we are one and decided that they could do it better.
If you are into podcasts they are worth having a listen to as they go into the difference between there rims and other manufacturers rims.
Also If I was to go carbon hoops they would be at the top of my list
Already heard the podcasts. They were on my radar prior to that.
It's less "oh hey I want a 29er" but more just wanting something more modern, and taking a really realistic evaluation of where and how I primarily ride.
i have never had to take 6 breathalyzer tests in one stop so they could cherry pick a fail....just saying.
So you’re getting a gravel grinder, eh?
Breathalyzers or roadside physical tests?
The first you need to do to avoid license suspension, the latter you can and should decline as they are a trap.
Already have a cx bike.
