I had the IQ-X some time ago and it was an incredible light. More than
enough light for just about any riding. I had one of their taillights as
well but I can’t remember the model. It was also fantastic.

I did have a Pass and Stow rack on a Black Mountain Cycles road+ and it was

the lower eyelet on a Susie and it looked good. The upper mount makes it

Thanks for the the confidence that I will be happy with the front rack! If
my bike was as loaded as yours, it would be just about everything I own!

I’m interested in this as well. I think a good part of it comes down to
handling preferences. Some have said it handles great with a front load and
others said it was terrible. I picked up a Pass and Stow rack for my Susie.
I plan to use panniers more than the flat rack but that will depend on
I have had very good luck with SCC Slick Tech chain lube. I just wipe my
chain down after or during those rides and it stays clean for a long while
before I just apply more. I’m not great at keeping track of miles but it

I think the Cliffhanger is about the only option for these things. I have a

My Susie will be replacing my current bike. I only build one at a time in

Thank you for the comments! I’m sure the Gus is invincible. Also good to
know it isn’t too low with a 2.2 tire. I really wish the dark green Gus was
still available. My wife is very against all of the color options coming
except the Riv orange for the Gus, so that’s what I’d have to go with.
