I haven’t soured on the short cranks yet so I built a formal gravel frame to replace the two bottom bracket test mule.
The Ritchey fork is super smooth and the Race Kings roll way faster than the knobs suggest.

They certainly do on my bakfiets with the big canopy on! It’s like having a sail and when I’m going into the wind I swear it’s more aero than riding without.

I can’t remember the last time I posted this bike proper, but the last big round of changes includes:
- Fenders on and then off again
- Force 1x11 → Force AXS
- Whisky carbon bar (and associated mediocre bar tape job)
- “Real” grav grav tires (American Classic Kimberlites - meh but ok for the price)

I asked my oldest in prison island was she interested in the goose. She 100% was. Will come with me when I visit my first grandchild in a few months. Took the old flex stem off and replaced it with this nos one I recently acquired. Will get her some pretty pedals too.
