WTD: QR disc gravelly frame 54cm ish

I’m after something to build up as a commuter / tourer, like a croix de fer. Has to be QR as I have a nice Dynamo wheelset to go with it.

Anyone got anything lying around?

Cheers

The Tiger Wall 2 on there is an incredible bargain but why do the Americans insist on making tents in such ridiculous colours?

Re: Salsa Warroad owners….

Mines the Ferrari red colour. I’ve just set it up with 650b x 47c properly and it rides great. Think I’ll go with 32c for the 700c set.

Dunno if anyone is interested but I’m selling the set of Tiagra / WTB wheels that came with the bike in case you wanted a third or fourth wheelset!

They are 700 x 38… so won’t fit the Warroad

But happy to swap if they’ll fit in another frame you have?

Re: Salsa Warroad owners….

It’s the same Vittoria tyres I cocked up with in 38c flavour. I did try and fit my 650b wheels in the frame with 47c teravail Rutland on velocity blunt ss rims but something v weird was going on. Sounded like the cranks were being compressed into the bb and was scraping.

Yeah, I took a bit of a punt from measurements. The back is fine with about 3mm clearance. Bit daft of me. I’ll check out the gravel kings.

Ritchey Outback v2 breakaway frame medium

After much deliberation about bike rationalisation I’ve decided that this one has to go. It’s a wonderful frame and the breakaway feature is great but with 2 young children and other bikes that can cover gravel it’s got to go. It’s currently built up in a 1 x GRX 810 setup. I’ll likely re-use the bu...
