[16:18] mrgoodcat: https://www.ibiscycles.com/bikes/mojo-4 [16:18] mrgoodcat: now I have an outdated bike lol [16:54] MUG tonight: http://mug.org [16:58] rick_h: time for a new one i guess [16:58] i ended up pulling the trigger on a tallboy. not sure if i mentioned or not [16:59] 130/140 seems to be a really common setup these days among folks who used to run like 110-120 range. Think modern suspensions are just so good that the additional 1-2cm isn't the pedaling penalty it used to be [17:00] I like the description as "all mountain playbike" [17:01] almost a 77 degree seat tube wowzers [17:02] i thought 27.5" was out of style. [17:04] lol... now I'm reading https://www.pinkbike.com/news/opinion-why-is-everyone-talking-about-seat-tube-angles.html [17:04] with a 2.6" tire you get almost the outside diameter of a 29" wheel with a traditional size like 2.3 [17:04] mrgoodcat: yea [17:04] I retrofitted a steeper seat tube on my bike (slid my saddle forward) and I can tell you it makes a huge difference climbing [17:05] and since i use my dropper liberally I don't really care about my seat for descending [17:05] michigan trails have a lot of flat pedally sections though which is where that steep seat tube can be a little uncomfortable [17:05] you guys are hardcore. [17:06] i've only biked somewhere just under 400 miles this year so far. many people i ride with have done more than twice that [17:06] i've biked a few miles this year :) [17:07] literally... 4 or 5.. just a few. [17:07] I'm thinking about converting my stache (hardtail, 29er x 3.0) to single speed [17:07] have a 28t crank so even with the big clown tires on it i think a 16t rear cog would be probably ok [17:17] https://gettogether.community/events/5514/monthly-meeting/
