weird!! definitely an older iteration. bummer that all the ritchey bars got heavier, but the aero tops do be feelinā nice on the hands.

Looked cute
Been having neck issues lately, I need to dial in the fit better and fix my posture. I have a bad habit of keeping my shoulders high and tight

Is that Stone Mountain or somewhere out near Panola Mountain park?
just guessing here, but if you can level out your saddle, or point the nose up a degree or two, it might let you plant more weight on your seat. From there maybe slide the saddle forward a cm to allow for a break in your elbows?
On longer rides I have to consciously remember to relax and drop my shoulders, the hunch is an inevitable tendency when youāre in as unnatural a position as that of a cyclist.

I slid the saddle forward a little but Iāll try adjusting the nose. I get this saddle not long ago and I think it sits a little higher than the previous so I may drop the seatpost a smidge

In the last few years Iāve been putting my saddle lower and further back to get myself to sit more on it. Feels better to have more weight in the back.

Up thread there was a discussion about 35mm tubeless and caves with half frame bags on wee bikes. The 35mm Conti tyres have been treating me well on road/gravel/singletrack, with good grip and they donāt buzz badly on road.
I like both, the SKS cages are cheap and work great with the small frame and a small Tangle.

Need to do this. On the fixed gear I get a lot of weight on my hands. Fore/aft was a total guess, not getting knee pain so it canāt be that bad.

I didnāt really understand where these tires were going but this gets full approval. great work, leave the fenders as is. weāre all proud of you.
What do you get out of it on that bike? I have never ridden one and Iām trying to convince myself to not take the weight hit on my newchardtail

I would have been more inclined to keep my Poseidon if it has the disc brake mount on the fork. Mine didnāt come with that.
itās the lightest weight youāll ever add. tbh itās not that heavy these days anyway. makes any mtb significantly more capable
Are the sleeves a bad creaky idea for sizing?
