Definitely following this, as I planned to do the same.
hopefully more setup pictures will follow

Is this 48-32 as you planned? Interested in what ring you used if yes

G one

And volley ball it seems.

Other words, tall people had it better

I think there are either full carbon and the generous padding version on ali

Guessing those are mountain FD, triple or double?

15 is MTB standard for years, would be easier to find though.

For me disc is perfect for commuting, with no rim wear and predictable braking.
Disc is quite normal nowadays I think, even the supermarket bikes have discs.

If it's 44 straight it would.
If what you mean straight is 1 1/8 then no.

At least the alpenchallenge fit wider tyres

That would be the expedition?
Do you still need to use the lower back strap to the support?

Cheers mate, Will look into it.
prefer building my own hence the hub question.

Right Ed, so any recommendations on cheap but decent disc hub that is :
Front TA 100x15
Rear QR 135
Preferably centre lock
Wager it will be a novatec from ali, but which one?

@frankenbike can go for it mate, not in position to enjoy the gratuois offer sadly.

Any recommendations for cheap but decent disc hubs for a gravel build? Novatec got so many variations which is confusing.

Yup you're right, mistook the 700x43c

Gravel king SK 650bx42c?

Cheers @amey @Heldring @miro_o

The horizons were from a different bike, Would probably better off with a 42c then (or a 44c if it exist)

Is this too tight for a 650b conversion?
That's the chain stay tyres are 47c wtb horizon

Won't the front derailleur will only care for the chainring difference Ed?(as long as the derailleur height is correct)

Although Shimano did release the Cx70 to use with 46 big ring, so maybe there are somerhing with the cage shape?

swap of 9sp XTR to 10speed (although i might not, i like the rear mech!!!)

You'll be using some kind of cable adjusters {tanpan / jtek) with the 10 speed MTB dearileuers though, so more reason to keep the 9 speed :)

Better act fast, those are limited items.

Haha how the hell did I misread the post!

Cheers tester.
