Re: [RBW] Susie Longbolts – offload yours on me or talk me out of it?!

[Richard Rose]

Coming from a Gus owner who has ridden both; DO IT! For all of the reasons mentioned here and more. My Gus is a very capable & comfortable rigid MTB. Also a pleasure riding to the trail & superb on gravel. Bikepacking? YES! 29 x 2.6 @ 16-18psi (tubeless) and it rolls over everything. It’s just a great, fun as hell bike. When I rode a friend’s Susie I really did not notice the weight difference. What I can say is the front end might be a bit stiffer. Not in a bad way, just very precise. You cannot go wrong.

(Mainly need a frame as an excuse to use my idle Bullmoose bars... so it goes.) If you have a Susie, what's your experience been like? Would you recommend it and for what? Should I try to find a 56 cm Susie (Riv is out of stock), or should I get something else?.. Should I get something custom made that'll be lighter?.. - Max "idle lunchtime thoughts on this cool November day while not wanting to do any work nor organize my already overflowing bike room" in MI -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
