Mass produced, but I loves it.

Trek Boone 9 Disc, wearing one of the three wheelsets I've got for it.

Presently sporting 40c WTB Nanos. Plenty of clearance!

Something you don't see everyday

I saw this over at Friday night@Vsalon. I guess in my eyes I think she qualifies as a "gravel bike", as she can pretty much go anywhere she wants.

The attention to details, the design and the choice of components is just impeccable.

Here's a couple of teaser shots, but to do justice, you've got to go here, blow it up BIG, and see for yourself.

That's perfect Nick, what size is it? I've always been perplexed by Bridgestone sizing. Happy trails!

I did the same thing with my MB6. I put Woodchipper style bars on it with bar end shifters and fenders. It's a tank but I think it's got style. Lol

Thanks Weisan. They're Barfly "Rain Fly" front and rear. They definitely don't work like a full fender but they're better than nothing for sure.
