Nice! They included a Pushmi-Pullyu with my Atlantis last year for no particular reason. Maybe all completes come with it now? Maybe it just got stuck to the font hub skewer when packing and they didn't mean to? Maybe I should have told them and offered to send it back? Ben, whose head is awas

You might not be able to fit a Pletecher over those big tires, my recollection from mounting one on my first Clem is the clearance gets tight at the rear struts. Leah should be a good info source for this, you can see in pics of her blue Clem L how the rack fits over her GravelKings and fender.
