Re: Older school gravel cx options?

yeah old tdf or cdf frame would do

soma is lovely but rather expensive without a fork

I also have a feeling there is something odd about cannondale rear wheels!

One other new option though I know nothing of them

Older school gravel cx options?

I have a nice set of qr disc wheels and post mount brakes plus drivetrain so was looking to see what frames are available.

Only really found surly straggler but even that at 5’8” I probably want a 52 which is for 650 wheels.

Any other options for new or am I looking at second hand?

Cheers

WTD: 1 / 1+ tent / shelter thing

More likely to be used on motorbike so small pack size more important than super light
Not looking for anything super posh really, likely to be used little

Re: Show me your 69er!

Looking good in both guises shawn, and a shame the frame has cracked...i've pondered 27.5 for the front of mine, it would certainly make handling a bit better, but it'd also mean buying a new wheel and tyre, so it's not happening.
