And for anyone interested in the build, it's mostly the "Grant Pick" build option with a few changes:
2024 61cm Charlie Gallop frame in gold Velocity a23 wheels w/ Silver Hubs Continental Contact Urban Tires Nitto 90-190 110m Stem Albatross Bar Silver Bar End Shifters + brass caps Dia-Compe Levers Tektro R559 Brakes Shimano Altus M310 Rear Derailleur Skeleton Key Front Derailleur Silver3 Double Crankset 44/28 Shimano 9spd 11-32t Felt + Newbaums Grips MKS Monarch pedals in green 2 King cages I’m 6’ with a 90.5cm PBH and the bike feels good. The 110m stem is a little long for me but I have an 85mm arriving today. Originally had a B17 saddle but am finding I prefer something narrower. Currently swapped for the 135mm WTB Volt off my Salsa Timberjack and am finding it much more agreeable. The felt/newbaums grips are something I wasn't sure about at first but have grown to really enjoy. I'm used to the ESI Chunky and these are smaller in diameter. After a few weeks of riding I've found them to be very comfortable and the look is hard to beat. On Mon, Jun 30, 2025 at 10:24 AM Stephen Edmondson < [email protected]> wrote: > Thanks!
