    Are you sure its in stock? I was going to send you that link last night, but it says "Backordered" "You will be contacted after purchase with ETA. If this is a time-sensitive part please contact us to verify ETA prior to ordering."

    Hunh, no such information appeared when I ordered it. I guess I am prepared to be disappointed if I get that message tomorrow. I have one on reservation at Q, but who the hell knows.

    Edit: just looked at the site now, none of that was there today, so I am hopeful. If I end up with two I’ll sell to a mag.

    So, if you really need a 190 x 45, there are a few Super Deluxes out there (new and used)

    Spent the afternoon in the shop

    Fork lower service, cleaned and regreased the airspring, and swapped in the fit 4 damper. Then decided to do air can on the shock. Swapped to new tires, cleaned and regreased freehub while i was at it. Also new dropper lever because the RF one that came with it wasn't very nice and hung down at a funny angle.

    And weighed it. 25 lb 11oz

    Those are the 2.35s and not the lightest casing so there's a bit of extra weight there. Probably go back to vittorias after these. The schwalbes are expensive, heavier than listed, and seem to run narrow.

    I bought a Leatt DBX 4.0 Enduro (their convertible full-face). I’ve ridden with it twice now, once with the chin bar, once without. It’s my first time riding with a lightweight full-face of any kind, so I can’t compare it to competitors like the Stage, Trigger, ProFrame, etc. It doesn’t feel anything like a DH helmet; breathing isn’t restricted at all and the chin bar basically disappears. But not the cheek pads. I think I’ll appreciate the removable bar for that reason.

    buying a bunch of amazon parts (chainguide, chainring bolts, shift housing, dial 7 levers) to turn my lady's old scatantte into a flat bar commuter.
    Going from tiagra/sora 3x9 to 1x10 with a sram 11x36 cassette, slx and xt parts from the old parts bin, keeping the middle 34(ish) ring with a downtube chainguide, old RF carbon bars with Dial 7 levers to the rim brakes. Should be neat.

    Snagged a WAO Union wheelset, ostensibly as a Valentine's gift. Two years without adjusting, dinging, bending, tensioning, or otherwise thinking about my wheels spoiled me, and the return to affordable aluminum rims was a rude awakening, so now the partner and I will each have half of an Agent wheelset, and half of a Union wheelset mismatched on our bikes.

    New gloves — seem to go through 2 pairs per year, hoping the finger-less will lead to less failures at the tips when digging.

    I agree. Can’t wait to ride them. Have Onyx on another bike and I don’t think I can go back to noisy hubs. Plus those colors!

    It's not an upgrade, but thanks to the continuing lag in production, repairs are more attractive than replacement. G-Flex and FG mat FTW.

    Picked up this Surly Karate Monkey off Craigslist yesterday. Barely ridden. First plus bike for me - hope I like it more than the cheap 26" fatbike I briefly had.

    It's going to take the place of my old cracked SS for riding with the dogs, taking camping, and general bad weather bike use.

    Nice, like that blue color.

    Plus is pretty fun, run 3.0/2.8 on my HT sometimes and like it for a few inches of snow and works fine in good dirt as well. Few subtle handling differences but NBD to get used to. Traction is also pretty incredible.

    this. my fatbike rarely has the full fat tires on. spends most of its time with a 27.5 x 2.8 rear and 29 x 3 front setup on a 2nd wheelset. does ok as long as the snow is only a couple inches. two bikes in one - still nice to have the full fats if we get enough snow.

    Once it warms up some, I need to do some work on that bike. Came with Level brakes, will swap over the SLX from the old broken SS. Has NX 1x11, 30x 11-42 gearing - may change that up. I think it has tubes, so will convert it tubeless.

    Finished the commuter for my lady. Turned the old 3x10 scattante drop bar bike to a 1x10 commuter.
