I've also punctured many times, but never needed a tube. Have you tried those tire repair foams? They work super well.

That is my concern with those too. With tubeless tires I've never had a puncture that I couldn't fix with a plugger or a foam spray, so the spare tube doesn't get used very often. I'd rather opt for...
I just sold my road bike and I will try with a gravel bike only. I've got some nice lightweight wheels on order, I will put 30mm road tires on those. For the last few years 90% of my riding has been...
The mullet term has gotten confusing. Mullet in MTB's means 29/27,5, but now in gravel they've taken the same term to mean MTB gearing on a gravel bike.
Well, I'm happy you are happy with it. It's built to be a super tough MTB and rear stay design like that will offer no flex at all. It'd bound to be rather stiff, but that doesn't mean that it...
A decent tube set (titanium or not) won't help when the frame is built like that. It will be very stiff and hard ride.
I still have a titanium road bike, bought in 2004. I bought it for the...
I've had 1x on my gravel bikes for many years, and I've also used these bikes for road riding with road wheels. I'm a roadie originally and I did worry about the gearing gaps etc, but to be honest it...
Yes, I just wanted to point out that it can feel better and different. I've used many different MTB pedals, and while they are good, they don't feel the same as proper road pedals - I guess that's...
Still, it's a noticeable difference using proper road pedals. The larger surface, lower stack, stronger connection - it just somehow feels better. Might be partly due to the very close fitting road...
Haha, I went out first time this spring without spike tires, on my gravel bike. There were still shadowy sections of road with 10cm of steel hard ice on them, had to walk the bike a few times. Still...
That too looks great! I considered the M-Team LTD too, but got the M-Team spec bike quicker. I've not had any issues with the battery in the cold (it's worked even at -10), but I've not really ridden...
That's a great looking bike too! I've noticed that I get a similar average heart rate with the e-mtb, higher cadence too, but I use less power as the bike assists.
This not the most powerful and heavy, this is the Orbea Rise (mine is the M-Team version) with the Shimano EP8 RS engine. The bike weight with regular tires in my size is a little over 18kg, which is...
I didn't think I'd be an e-bike guy, but I've had so much fun with this bike lately! It's still winter here, so spike tires on the bike.

Sorry, I missed your post earlier. Funny coincidence, but I actually had a Felt FR2 before the OMX! I liked the bike a lot, Felt makes super nice frames. It is bit of an older generation frame...
It is the OMX yes, the Scott is a nice bike too! I've had Michelin Power Endurance 28mm tires on the bike all season. I run around 4,5bar and have had no issues on good condition gravel roads, I must...
One of the best rides this past summer, doing some gravel with the road bike.
