Good point Moorey, I have 33mm (think external) wide rims

I have a 2017 Trance that fits 2.6" wide tyres, is there many disadvantages in going the wider tyre or would you stick around 2.4" ??????

Thanks Mr Crudley, it's great to get a review by someone who has one

Totaly agree with both of these statements, I am happy to wear Lycra, ride a Roadie and love my Stand Up Paddle board, long through caring what I look like Maybe instead of saying are they "Cool" should of said "Practical"!!

Sounds like Cyclocross is getting the vote from most at the moment there are some good bikes around for under $1,500. On my commute I have a steep 100 meter climb each way, how will the Cyclocross gearing be against an MTB?

Camoshop, that's funny I have pretty much well read this forum evey day since I have joined. Picked up lots of really good info maybe I might have to get more involved.

JTmofo, I think you and I are commuting to the same place, does this sound familiar "BIP or ICI"

Hi All, Recently started commuting once a week to work, really enjoying it and would like to do it more often. I am currently riding my 29er dually, it goes OK however I am thinking that maybe I should get something different as if I can make it easier I will ride more often. The...
