Yeah i'm quite impressed. if I had a bike that took those wheels, i'd try them I think.

I think it's purely aesthetics.

edit.

I should read other people reply's before repeating them.

I'm using a short cage on my road bike and with 32 cassette and standard front double. It works perfectly despite shimano saying the max is 30. or possibly 28, can't remember

It's such a beautiful frame, I'd go with dammit and put DA9000 on. It'd be a travesty to chop that around.

Does anyone have a 29x3 tyre they want to sell?

Thanks!

I did a lot of on/offroad riding over the holiday on my straggler set up like this.

It's so comfortable for long days and the Nano's (from Jontea) are excellent offload and not at all bad on road.
I've changed the rear "mudguard" as it was pretty much useless. I've got a standard SKS on there now.

Yeah I started doing it because I didn't want to pay for hot yoga. It's bloody great!

You could try a really hot bath and do stretching in the bath after about 20 mins? That's very effective.

Look up the 'downward facing dog' yoga pose. It's very effective. Also with that do the pigeon pose for the glutes, it's so good!

Great, thanks Andy!

Can I put a 29x3 front tyre on my ogre?

Excellent! I'm looking forward to seeing this built up!

that's a beauty! I really like the colours.

Are you saying I should have read the previous page before posting?
Looks quite good though doesn't it?

This looks interesting.

If you want a super light old mtb alu frame, Ellsworth can be picked up cheap.
GT made lots of decent ones in the mid to late 90's too and they look good.

Thanks Ed!
Jontea had some Nano's secondhand so I've bought them. If they don't work I'll try the CX Comp or the Clement's.

they are nice, but I'm after something for the southdowns and all the bridal ways around here lots of which require road riding to get to. so I need something for everything.
A gravel tyre like the rock n road would be perfect but i can't find them anywhere.

what tyres shall i buy ed?

good quality tyres are pretty much always folding now aren't they?

I was going to buy the wtb nano 700x40 for my Straggler. however, everywhere seems to be sold of of the decent folding ones. So, I need an alternative. I want something fast rolling but around the 40c size and with decent offroad ability. what shall I go for?

yeah, fucking BLB. everything in their shop is ridiculous.
I'm not a fan of the logo's on my 585 either. it's the only thing I don't like about it.
