Re: WTD : Geoff Bars or Confucius

That’s good to know thanks. The Halo is about 150g heavier than the raceface and some have said the raceface isn’t particularly tough.

Can’t find any in the UK. Have seen some Asym i35s on Wiggle for £45 but thinking I should be looking for a minimum of 40mm id.

27.5 rims for 3” tyres

I’m looking for some 27.5+ rims to build up a set of wheels for 3” Chronicles. The only rims I can find within my £100/pair budget are Raceface AR40 for £71 and Halo Vapour 50 for £98.
Does anyone have any experience with these rims or have any other recommendations?

Re: Genesis Longitude Sizing

Thanks very much for the input fellas, it’s greatly appreciated. I’m thinking I could probably make both fit but Small sounds like it will be most suitable, particularly the standover height. Do any of you have any pictures you could post? @Lazarus whereabouts are you? I’m in South Manchester and wo...

Genesis Longitude Sizing

I'm looking at buying a new Longitude and at 168cm tall the Genesis website suggests Medium is the right size. Looking at the geometry chart I think Small may be better, particularly the stack, reach and standover measurements. A sales assistant in Evans thought similar. Does anyone around my height...
