It's a bulletproof setup too. I've done thousands of miles on mine with no problem greater than a bit of chain noise.

Seems a bit of a rip to have HD and non HD versions. Cheeky barstewards.

Wouldn't have a clue. I do remember that my old 50k maps looked like crap when I zoomed in close on my etrex though. I'd assume I'd probably want HD for the Edge 1000... and I don't much fancy shelling out £180 for that, let alone the full price.

After opening the garage door to reveal *another* puncture on the Fargo with the Challenge Gravel Grinder tyres I set out to find alternatives and saw On-One have their own Gravel Road tyres down to £15 for the 120tpi Folders in 700x40c. I've bought a load of the corresponding inner tubes as they are 99p currently. :grin:

(The 700 x 33c are the same price)

I can also confirm that the On One Gravel tyres work well tubeless on crest rims. They inflated easily and with about 50mls of stans fluid, have held up at 40psi for weeks. Not the best commuting tyre though as max pressure with this set up is 50psi.

I know its out of date and fashion AND it doesn't have a fork, but it still seems a very good price for a very classy frame. :grin:
