Man, that big view is so cool. It looks like the rock displaced the trees, but that is not the case. I could spend hours walking around that spot. Fabulous photograph of the interaction of plants and the earth. Mike SLO CA On Thursday, March 28, 2024 at 11:40:58 PM UTC-7 plumber...@gmail.com

Man, that Bomba is cool, but that split rock is outtasight! The rock looks as though the tree roots envelop it. Next time you're by that place I'd like to see the bigger picture. What a special spot to ride an outstanding bike to. Cheers, John On Thursday, March 28, 2024 at 1:34:02 PM

Cheers, all! The stem is as short as they get - Crust BJ stem, which is 25mm length and doesn't even have an extension tube. I tend to prefer a shorter reach and even on the Hillborne I run a 5cm Tallux, despite the bike not being too large at all. I like how it keeps me from being too much

Looks great Jason. Also curious about the stem. And wondering what width tires under those fenders? Looks like you may have break-away fender tabs on there? John On Wednesday, March 27, 2024 at 5:31:52 PM UTC-7 Jason Fuller wrote: > This bike is not new to most of you, but I wanted to share a
