Re: SP Hubs some statistics
Is this q/r or the 15mm? I thought the q/r were better lasting than the 15s?

Re: Lowering a water bottle cage
We use Mt Skidmore and some Blackburn side entry cages on our bikes. It allowed us to use a partial frame bag and carrry two wayer bottles that we could easily remove/replace as we rode.

My GF is currently riding the French Divide. She has the Riddler 37 set up tubeless on her gravel bike. She says the tyres have been great though she would have prefered a different bike for the red mtb trails!
