I have only ridden it to tune it. So nothing to report on handling yet. I have a handle bar bag on most bikes I own and I have never experienced handling issues. Maybe because the bags are on the smaller side and I only keep necessities that I need at arm's reach in them. -- You received

Very nice. How does the high handlebar bag (high, as opposed to one that sits lower down on a front rack) affect your Hunq's handling? I found that it made mine surprisingly squirrelly. Kevin Lindsey Alexandria, VA USA On Friday, March 30, 2018 at 11:28:47 AM UTC-4, Conway Bennett wrote: > > I

The drivetrain is a 36t wolf tooth drop stop front ring, xt 10 speed 11/36 cassette and an ultegra mid cage derailer. I hate setting up front derailleurs and I live in the second flattest state in the union so I'm covered for gearing both here and beyond. I bought a sunrace 9 speed 11-40 cassette

Chris, Yes those are wtb byways. I rode the old 54 hunq at Riv years back and loved it and wished it were bigger. I didn't measure standover, and I never have, but my pbh was measured at Riv at 88. This bike feels really good. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the

Sweet 1x drivetrain! I’m building up my wife’s Clementine as a 1x and have been puzzling out how to figure her chainring. Is yours a 32 or 34? or am I off? (the answer may be yes to both!) Grin. It’s hard to beat a stable with a QB and Hunqa in it! With abandon, Patrick -- You received this

Beautiful bike! I've always like the green on the Hunq. I also have a Tubus Tara on my Sam--I wish the Riv forks had mounts in the right place to fit it without an adapter. One build question--what is that bottle mount for on the downtube? Never seen anything like it. And I see a ton of bikes

Are those one of the WTB 47mm tires and if so, did you measure the stand-over? I think I'm just on the cusp of fitting a 56 (versus a 53) Hunqapillar. On Friday, March 30, 2018 at 10:28:47 AM UTC-5, Conway Bennett wrote: > > It's a gently used 56 cm 650b I picked up in December from a list

I must save for one of those. I've been hassling myself trying to make a 44/30 double for the Fargo without widening the Q any more than it currently is (160) with the XD2 and the 113 mm Tange.

I must look into that WI crankset. I've found that the BAs roll very well for their bulk; they even climb surprisingly well -- and I've paired mine with 780 gram 45 mm rims -- and this even at absurdly low pressures -- sub 15/sub 20. Yesterday I was maintaining 18 mph on pavement (as well as on fi

i took the hunqapillar out for a ride yesterday, and aside from coming down with some sort of flu out in the middle of briones, all was great. The 2.35" big apples roll over most anything, it was a bit crazy to find myself picking out the most difficult line for a change. quite a bit different than
