Yeah, that's a concern, though I rarely move off the hoods today, and most of my bike-packing today is on a hardtail, so I don't think it'll be a problem.

Here are my two. Compliment each other quite well. I got rid of my road bike and have two wheel sets for the SuperSix Evo SE, it's quite fast. I run 32c road tires on one set and 35c G-One RS on the other. The Slate has a few upgrades, carbon Hunt wheels, Canyon/Ergon seat post, swapped the chainrings to 50/34 and cassette to 11-34. Both have my personal preference Zipp 70 XPLR bars and Pro Stealth saddle.

Ritchey Ti Cross Breakaway
In more of a path/road mode. Got some very silver Zeta wheels + Pirelli 35c tires. Not the fastest hoops out there but super plush. Still trying to work out the best combo for road and off-road. There is a lot more room between the stays for fatter rubber.

Came here to post the same bike. I have the Cane Creek suspension stem & post on it now. Love the bike. Also running Mavic Ksyriums at the moment and wondering how good the bike would be with some truly good wheels.

I am tempted to buy some Lightbicycle low profile (25mm deep) carbon wheels which if nothing else, would probably save half a kg from a heavy bike. In terms of ride quality, I can't imagine they'd make really any difference though, hence I've not yet gone through with the purchase. I think the phot below mine does the paint job more justice. |

That generation Orbea Terra, with the almost horizontal top tube and the very low seat tube extension, looks fantastic! A part of me whish I had picked up one when they did the color customization program.
@Macaroon: How do you like the Growtacs with Campagnolo? I am always tempted by a build with mech discs due to me preferring the mech shifter ergonomics over the hydro, although the latter still works fine. Last edited by erik$; 07-26-2024 at 03:22 AM. |

As for the Growtacs, they work very well, the only negative being the pads run very close to the rotor. But this is a feature of every cable actuated disc caliper (except Pauls Clampers which I think are Campag specific) when paired with Campagnolo levers. Better than the rest (Spyre and Juin Tech F1) of the calipers I've used. Very easy to disassemble. Not tried in wet weather or through winter yet. |
