This is great news. It's the one bike missing in the line-up. I like
the threadless option too. (I've become a
handlebar-2.5-cm-below-the-saddle-guy and no longer care about the ease
of up and down adjustment that the quill offers.)

I wonder if "high performance" means high pressure? Sure sounds interesting,
might have to give these a try.

So $65 a tire. Yikes. And I thought the Grand Bois were
overpriced
Vegan bags? Please tell me someone else has more info on this. I've
been hoping for some leather-free items and this sounds great but I'd
love to hear (or see) a prototype or any info on them at all.

I wonder if it will fit Jack Browns, or be limited to 28's?

Hi, folks.
This news appeared over on the 650B list today (sorry if a repeat/

We're working on sort-of-a-Ramboiullet replacement, but more of a

Great pics, Eric! I remember going to that park as a young-un. Always
liked that part of the state. The St. Croix is a good river. I've had my

Great story, Doug - and great ride. That's lovely terrain up there.

Well, it is a good thing the rocks had already slid and forced you to

I'm a believer in Schwalbe Marathon Supremes. Been running 35s on my

the front still has life in it.
