1979 Charlie Cunningham CCPROTO: Two-Wheeled Prometheus – Tasshi Dennis & John Watson The CCPROTO represents the genesis of a Promethean figure within the world of bicycle design and fabrication.  Back in the 1970s, Charlie Cunningham took a break from modifying ultralight-weight weeni...

Great piece on the #charlie-cunningham #CCPROTO #DropbarMTB over on #theradavist. The linked article in the last paragraph on Cunningham's #29er is also worth a read. theradavist.com/1979-charlie...

So maybe a real "SuperGravel" (as I started to call #DropbarMTB '#Gravel #MTB #fullsus #Trek #Prototype #cycling

(more characters @bsky.app , more characters... make yourself valid)

Yay - Bae is back!
Poor Bae had to wait ages for her fork to come back out of service.
But now they are united again and I are united with Bae! 😍😉🤓

Innova Super Gravel - Fast. Flow. Adventure Es gibt Bikes, die Regeln befolgen. Und Bikes, die sie brechen. In einer Welt, in der Gravel Grenzen kennt, definiert Innova die Welt neu – mit 100 mm Federweg vorne, 30 mm Flex hinten und einem Rahme...

It's of course based on the pre-existing Rampage Innova Softtail.
This features 30 mm travel on the rear and is specced with a 100 XC suspension fork in the front.

Geo and features look perfect for a DropbarMTB / Supergravel. 👍😃

Gold Creek Saddle. Taking a moment to rest, snack, and reflect on how hard the climb up was, before the only intermittently sketchy, consistently beautiful descent.

Back on my bullshit (after work bike rides and posting golden hour pics of my bikes). Daylight Savings Time slaps.

Ridley Bikes just unveiled the Ignite GTX as a #DropbarMTB ready to buy.

It's called exactly like their still existing hardtail, the Ignite GTX. And shares the same frame.

This is awesome!

Remember the nice #DropbarMTB of @krystianwagnerr I shared recently (well, only on Instagram, I guess) (he went ti the AMR with it)?

This was the prototype and from today on you can buy this bike. And not only that - you can configure it to your heart’s content!

What a cool 2 builds! Might be tempted to build a similar C'dale as I still have and love my vintage SuperV 900 SL. Won't touch that one, though.
Would also choose slightly different components and I feel a more shallow drop dropbar and slightly longer stem would improve visual aesthetics a lot (but a fit is a fit so if that's what Timo likes that's that).

Dropbar-MTB, Teil 5: der konkrete Aufbau, Teileliste und das finale Ergebnis Hier nun seht ihr den fünften Teil und damit den Abschluss der großen Artikelserie zur Dropbar-MTB-Konversion. Hier geht es jetzt um den finalen und tatsächlichen Auf- bzw. Umbau meines Exceed. Um …

Some noteworthy component choices explained in above Instagram post. Can't replicate here since Bluesky is way too handicapped in terms of character count.

But you can read the epic long version from start of 2023 on my blog: torstenfrank.wordpress.com/2023/04/25/d...

Scenic view for my #DropbarMTB or better: my Gravelbike for fun, comfort and speed!

I built this bike already in Dec 2022 and it has proven itself over and over since. And dare I say wide tires and suspension forks are finally the main stream in Gravel they deserve?

Dropbar Exceed As much as I try to convince myself that flatbars can work with the right grips and a bit of further provisions like the right innerbar ends and as much as I like my full suspension bike — taking my l...

Can't help but prefer drop bars. Even if flat bars have their place, too.

But that bikes whole geometry package is sooo awesome:

Unironically listening to @escapecollective.bsky.social Ronan’s AeroCoach interviews on a ride last night. I see some opportunities for improvement. #aeroiseverything #gravel #dropbarmtb #cycling

There’s a great article on the costs and externalities of electronic shifting at bikepacking.com/plog/cost-of-convenience-wireless-shifting-review. It got me thinking about my drivetrains, especially the simple and versatile Gevenalle shifter. 🐐 #bikepacking #cycling #gravel #dropbarmtb #gevenalle
