Re: Hope fortus 35 wheelset 29" plus 3" tyres

Currently they have a boost kit fitted. Which are basically just loose axle spacers and disc spacers.
I have a load of hope spacers so can supply
Qr, 12mm and 15mm.
Could possibly split the tyres
Also got a spare chronicle and a pair of nearly new chubacara tyres.

Ryan Van Duzer the great divide

Been watching his series of videos on you tube about most of the great divide route.
I think it's been done really well as he takes a fair bit of time to show some of the history and people on the route instead of the usual race videos. Well worth checking out if you've not seen it.

Re: Atlas Mountain Race...

Wanted to enter but as above didn't think it was right for a few hundred people to go into those villages/towns in the current climate. Plus the possibility of having to self isolate on return makes it a long holiday from work needed.
