"Papa, kannst du mir hier bei den Bügelperlen helfen? --- Na klar, aber nur kurz, dann muss ich wirklich zur Arbeit."

Das war gelogen, also nur so halb. Der Sonnenaufgang und die Feldwege fordern halt auch etwas Zeit ein, das lässt sich schwer vermeiden. Ich bin ein suboptimaler Papa ;o)

After torturing LibreOffice Calc with the boring task of calculating the ratios for every possible combination of a 40T / 38T chainring and an 11-42T / 11-46T cassette, I've decided to swap both: the (original) 40T (round) chainring for a 38T (oval) one, and the (original) 11-42T cassette for an 11-46T. A short test ride today confirmed that it was the right choice — exactly what I had hoped for! Climbs like a goat. 🐐🙂

Frame geometry comparison between my current gravel bike and several contenders.

The goal is to find a new bike that I enjoy riding on and off the road equally. I understand such a bike will not excel at anything in particular and would never ride as well as a pure road or off road bike in their respective departments. I really love how my current bike ride both on and off the road but a longer wheelbase wouldn't be a bad thing off the road.

What do you guys think?

Note: I am currently using a non setback seatpost on my gravel bike, 2cm of spacers on top of the head tube and the top of my saddle is 210mm above the top of the seattube so I have room.

What would you choose for a versatile, durable and comfortable any road + light trails bicycle with some carrying capabilities?

Any owner of one of these on the Fediverse ? Boosts appreciated.
