T-Bob Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 If people want it, build it... and take their money then sell them accessories, show great instagram images, sell some upgrades, deal carbon then tell them the've been riding the wrong size wheels and we all need to upgrade to a bigger size because they are stopping making the current size as there is no demand and after a bit make a slightly smaller wheel size that is slightly smaller than the new size but slightly bigger than the original size because people want it and if people want it then build it... Just tweaked it a bit. Zebra 1
coppi Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 Just tweaked it a bit. Yes, like I overheard someone telling his mates that Giant is no longer making a 29" Anthem and will be focusing on 27,5" only .............. T-Bob 1
NicoBoshoff Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 Pump those brakes, Iwan. You want the gravel grinding hipsters to spill their Fair Trade, hand ground artisanal espressos into their waxed moustaches with such inflammatory statements?! I'm all for riding what makes you happy, but I won't let the industry tell me that some drop-bar frankenroadbike is superior to a vanilla XC 29er across a stretch of rough gravel.But you'll happily have them pour you that e-bike Koolaid hey NotSoBigBen, Capricorn, Patchelicious and 1 other 4
Patchelicious Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 Just tweaked it a bit. Only mistake you made was say that they TAKE you money.... nope, you GIVE it to them T-Bob 1

Hairy Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 Mr Tomac has been rocking roadie bars on mtb's before it became cool http://cdn.mos.bikeradar.imdserve.com/images/news/2015/10/02/1443765678342-i7q2tdyggtb-630-354.jpg http://mbaction.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Tomac_2_Zap-e1458748157315.jpg coppi, shaper, T-Bob and 3 others 6

We have gone down the rabbit hole and someone came out with our face up our own ass! Again, no problem with gravel bikes and gravel riding, but if you're looking to add front and rear suspension maybe, just maybe, there is already a bike for the type of riding you do. Maybe. Hairy 1
Patchelicious Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 Exactly, but back then they were still figuring out the transition. We have gone down the rabbit hole and someone came out with our face up our own ass! Again, no problem with gravel bikes and gravel riding, but if you're looking to add front and rear suspension maybe, just maybe, there is already a bike for the type of riding you do. Maybe. People have been saying that since the beginning of bicycles.....
Mongoose!

Maybe. when I build mine, I looked around yes. but could only found broom stick bikes. As a roadie I always (and will always) like drop bars more than broom stick bars. Really enjoy the mtb scenery in the drops man...jip on front suspension...
Rocket-Boy Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 Mr Tomac has been rocking roadie bars on mtb's before it became cool looks like he was running 1x too, judging by that TT style shifter one the one side only.
