this section was paved and I didnt stop much for photos since it was pouring the whole day, but got out for a nice mixed media ride in the Catskills yesterday.

Thanks! It's everything I hoped it would be. Fast enough for group rides with 700 x 32, comfy for all day rides with 650b x 42, and cushy for double-track with 650b x 50.

Love the bike! This is exactly what I plan to do with my current frame build.

Evening tooling around

Stopped to hang for a few at the pond before heading home.

Sorry about the crappy day, but this bike looks pretty much perfect to me. Was it custom built for you?

Show me your gravelbikes....inspire me.


The FF wearing some MSO 36s was perfect for a foggy damp dirt ride in VT last weekend.

What was your route? I grew up in Red Hook and have done a fair bit of backpacking in the Catskills, but no riding.

They sure ride nicely. Just have to swap out my bars. Work great on my roadie, but not enough to grab onto down low for the tiBird. TiDesigns steered me towards a 3T bar that I'll swap out next week.
