I know some of these spots are super secret but it’d be great if we could share some locations with some of these shots. I’m in northern NJ and looking for some gravel to ride - any suggestions would be greatly appreciated - thanks all

@Miller 76 Lundy Rd in Kerhonkson NY. Do the hiking trails too. And connect it to trails in Minnewaska and/or Mohonk for a full day of gravel.

Putman County

If you are willing to drive a bit, there are some really good gravel rides up in Putnam county NY, and also the the Leigh valley area in PA.
I might be heading up to Putnam county in a couple of weeks to ride..

I'm in the process of building an Open UPPER right now. Waiting on some calipers and a few small things and it will be done soon

I'm sure this has all been covered around here, but what is the benefit of going 1x for you on this bike? Thx.

By making the discs so light?.. Seriously, nice looking bike, but an extra pound to get some more metal into those discs will help keep them from warping on a descent.

We'll see how we go. Held up fine yesterday on some steep descents. Heavier would be around 30gm each.

Yeah; my road bike is heavier!

Wanted to get the weight down as I'm 60kg.
But mainly due to quite a bit of steep rockcrawling gravel/rocky tracks in my digs.
