Are there any Redshift ShockStop stems floating around ?
I am (tentatively) looking for a 90mm

you and me both brother

There were one or two over the past months that “expired” in classifieds on here for around 2-2.4k. Maybe google “shockstop stem bikehub” to get the expired ads come up and contact those guys and hear if they sold them. I bought some brakes of someone a while back that also had one for sale.

here’s one of those. Its not the guy i got some brakes from, he also had a 90mm. Mine had to be 100mm so bought it new.

Howzit All. Super inspiring thread!

I have a Cannondale Topstone 2 that I bought last year. Took off the 2X Tiagra and put on a 1X GRX600 and changed the seat post and seat. I have two sets of wheels one running 32 Specialised Roubaix tubeless tyres for road riding and the other the Goodyear Ultimate Connector 40mm tubeless. 
I have the same 11-40 Slx cassette on both wheel sets and running a 40T in front. 

Been riding road a fair amount recently and I do seem to run out of top end gears on the fast flat sections.

Usual riding gravel is out on Winelands Cycling club routes and around Somerset West/Paarl and wanting to expand to go into the Overberg  

Took the bike on some single track in Jonkershoek and joined a mtb ride over the mountain above Simonstown and  it handles fantastically. 
 

On gravel and road super comfortable. 
 

I’ve had my eye on the Cannondale Supersox Evo SE, but then I take this one out for a ride and I think to myself why so I want to change?? 
 

anyway, thanks for the inspiration!

It’s a great ride! What made you sell yours?

grass greener on the other side - I’m struggling with that too!

looks like this was a lekker setup! What handlebars are those?

As Scalpel correctly pointed out.  Green is the new thing.  

 

I wonder if I sell it one day if I can say it is in "mint condition"?

You know the answer.  😉😁
 

Bars are the Ritchy WCS alu bars.  Very comfy.

Here's my work in progress - got the frame from a fellow hubber and have cobbled some bits and pieces together to get it rolling.

It was originally built for bikepacking but Ive yet to do a trip on it...
