Love me a good Elephant.

Canyon states the Grizl is designed around one wheel size only. Whether that's practically the case, I dunno. I would shoot them an email about it, though they will probably recommend you don't.

That’s tight. Nice pictures too.

On second thought, let’s not go to the gravel thread. ‘Tis a silly place.

Nice. Road tubeless holding up? Love that closed cage rear derailleur.

Please no silly tyre discussions in this thread. Buying overpriced highly marketed hipster tyres should not be discouraged.

Amazing. Cargo bike is so functional.

Hulsroy in sound and motion, can’t wait to see!

All these Cava endorsements are not helping!

How are you finding the 2” re-fuse?

They’re okay, but they’re bothering me more and more. Getting up to speed on the road, I feel like I notice that they’re not that fast.

Tubeless setup was a breeze though; I got them to seat with a floor pump, and they held air without sealant.

But what to get next? I'm eyeing some Ultradynamico Cava Races, but they’re mad pricey.

Some pointless upgrades, but getting closer to its final form I feel.

VO Grand Cru bars; 42cm at the hoods, 48 at the drops, with a whopping 120mm reach. Really like the angle of the hoods as a result of the flare. And some jewelry bar ends to match the saddle.

Different pedals and tyres should finish this off.

So the heaviest, worst slick city tyre you can find is going to be faster than that Thunder Burt? Of course not, because knobs/tread isn’t the only factor that makes a tyre fast or slow.

Anecdotally, my friend has a set of Thunder Burts, and they roll ridiculously well. Maybe RH tyres just aren’t that great. 🤷

Road pedals?!

Thanks a lot everyone. Didn’t expect so much feedback!

Well done mate. Great pace as well.

I'll make sure to tell my mate.

Ideally, I'll have the bike set up so that I can swap out the wheelset depending on if I'm in the city or out on the trails, which I'm hoping is viable.

It’s viable, but impractical.

Just ride it in the city in cross mode, or build up another bike. I’d go with the former personally.

Sweet Puch. What's the tyre width you're going for? There seems to be plenty clearance.

In one ride?! Bike looks dialed.

+1 for a CP thread.

Reported for feet shaming.

@BareNecessities: What are you trying to say about my feet buddy.

@Maj: High praise!

Very comprehensive answer, thank you!

Any recommendations for decent a (not great, not terrible) front and rear light for commuting a route without street lanterns?

Planning on combining it with a Shutter Precision PL-8 hub (3W output, Shimano style two-piece connector).

Looks great. Where’s this?
