that's some pretty gnarly looking dirt you've got it out on there too!

Evergreen S (straight gauge titanium)

Damn, Dude! Two Seven Evergreens?!! Both sweet bikes. How do they compare?

The Pro feels a bit livelier but that could be just the honeymoon period (I’ve only had two rides-all road). Since they are the same geometry, handling is the same - stable/neutral road manners. I’d like to get on the gravel to see how it handles. I don’t think I can keep both, as I have two other gravel bikes (Mosaic & Baxter)...sigh

One must learn to live within own limitations and adapt accordingly.

It's funny you say that...a few hours ago, it was all muddy and sandy before i gave it a good wash. We had a severe thunderstorm the night before and the trails were a mess when I took it out for its first "real" gravel ride, saw a bit of rub when the mud accumulated to a certain point, made a note to self, either increase the crimpage just a tab more or make sure I don't ride it right after a bloody storm.

Scrolling through older posts and had to stop and comment on this beauty! Do you have more pics or a separate build thread?

I have too many bikes. These are my allarounders, which get more use than all the rest.
