Rides like a tank with these tires 👌 🤪 Wow how bikes have changed in the past 10 years. Don’t mind me just just squeezing in 2.2s in the back of my 2014 Scott scale. Gravel bikes are really starting to blur the lines between what is considered a mountain bike and a gravel bike. ChrisF 1

Well seeing that its Friday. I compared my scale to the Revolt's geometry and it seems like to Revolt will be more comfortable than my scale, twitchy but more comfortable with the higher stack and shorter reach. Mongoose! 1

Mongoose! Posted March 28 Posted March 28 I place my bet on a 38 tooth. Maybe 40 with a zero off set ring but the chain line will be a mess. 😜

November / December there were a fair selection of Giant available. 3 or 4 Merida .... Just after I picked up the Giant Revolt a shipment of Merida landed ..... One brand at a time in over supply, and the rest minimal ....
