I already have a cross bike (bought new last year) that works pretty well for gravel with a number of gravel races and lots of miles and elevation on it with no problem. A local guy is selling a gravel specific bike that I love the look of but is essentially the same geometry although a little shorter wheelbase and 650b tires....
Hi all, this is just a shot at having a community on Lemmy on gravel bikes! Let’s see how many are happy to join, feel free to make proposals for the community icon and the header - in the meantime I put a couple of pics from my trips. Have fun averyone!
Wanted to build a thru axle gravel bike, first ride impressions are awesome, easy to throw around and silent. Juin F1 brakes with compressionless bowden housing, this is now on par with fully hydraulic systems. Still some final details to iron out, very happy with it so far.
Hullo! Does anyone have experience with the GRVL line of Decathlon bikes? The most concerning component they use are the hydro-mechanical brakes, TRP HY/RD. To me they almost seem the worst of both worlds, so to say. What do you think? How would they compare to the GRX 400? Thanks in advance and keep pedaling!
Hi guys! Great to see some gravel enthusiasts here on Lemmy. Its my very first post here so i would like to share my last from reddit - finest Czech "gravel" with my Merida Silex.
