patches Posted June 2, 2014 Share Getting weight off my back and onto the bike for R2R... I used to have one of those... or something like it... http://image.ec21.com/image/sunsail001/oimg_GC03728929_CA03941969/Bicycle_Triangle_Frame_Bag.jpg Mine was blue. I never had a cool Reebok seatpost clamp though. Funny how things do the rounds. That must have been about 16yrs ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been using a triangle frame bag on the HT I've been riding but have decided to use a dual sus so needed a slightly different shape. When hauling yourself, a bike and 20L plus of 'luggage' across the country whats 'cool or not' kinda goes out the window. The less of the 20L I have on my back the better .

NotSoBigBen Posted June 2, 2014 Share Picked this up at the shop on Saturday. Love it. Comfy and roomy. And - ja, ja, NSBB - it's better than the Giant PVC one! Dude a Checkers grocery packet would have been better than any Giant one Tumbleweed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAAD4 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Would love a review of how this compares to the Niner fork please... When the Martini Ritchey is done of course. Edit spelling If I remember correctly, the Marshall had a Ritchey fork on his P-29er initially, but found that the Niner was a better ride... I tihnk there was a pic in the single speed thread.

Wyatt Earp Posted June 2, 2014 Share If I remember correctly, the Marshall had a Ritchey fork on his P-29er initially, but found that the Niner was a better ride... I tihnk there was a pic in the single speed thread. True that, it was the older Ritchey fork, I rode Attakwas with that fork.Between those two I prefer the Niner, the new fork I believe is different.Nathrix prefers the Ritchey fork, he has the older version.

Wyatt Earp Posted June 2, 2014 Share I have the older Ritchey fork, have always wondered how much (if any) the Niner fork would be on my bike. The Niner fork is light, just over 600 grams.Any rigid fork becomes hard after 40 k's though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stretched@Birth Posted June 2, 2014 Share The Niner fork is light, just over 600 grams.Any rigid fork becomes hard after 40 k's though You said it! At 40km's you start wishing for some squish! The lightness may help my wheelying ability, all the years of riding, and I still cannot maintain a proper wheelie... Wyatt Earp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bullet77 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Nice bike man, I almost bought one but common sense prevailed over going into debt for a toy. I still wish I had pulled the irresponsible trigger. Oh well at least my wife thinks I did the right thing. Enjoy the bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
