Last summer my wife decided to buy a pool. Neither of us had ever owned one, and living in Michigan, it needed to be prepped for winter — which we did not do. Partly because we got hit with snow earlier than expected, and partly because my light research online turned up plenty of people saying...

I was actually looking around spesh website and they had the comp in amethyst frost in my size in stock. So I called my LBS to see if they could get it and he said no but to go ahead and just order it and have it shipped to them. So it should be here next week!

Alright got some goodies in from overseas for the Epic! New stem is on and fork is converted to 32". I think it looks pretty... Epic. It looks very aggressive but the numbers are not bad, the large wheel pushes the front up so much this just brings the bar back down to close to what it was...

that looks so good! Reminds me of the ultra light SL6 edition which I think is one of specialized best road bikes they have made.

ha I was thinking the same thing with a painting or something over it. Will have to see how it looks once its all done, if I can make it look neat I'll leave it as is but if it becomes a mess of cables I will try to find something to hide it.

I mentioned earlier that I was planning to do a 200-mile gravel race at the end of June. That race requires a support crew, and it was going to be a hassle to organize, so I ended up not signing up. Instead, I decided to really push myself — I have a 320-mile (515km) route planned that starts...

Few weeks on the 32" front wheel and I gotta say I am liking it. It is for sure faster, I have been setting a ton of new Strava PRs with it. But I also wanna be honest and say it's a pretty minimal difference. My testing is showing 1-3 seconds faster per minute compared to 29, so for the average...

If you have an AMS look at the Sunlu dryer top for it. It replaces the AMS lid with a built in heater/dryer. I’m really happy with mine.

I was very slow to adopt 29" wheels when they started hitting MTB. When I started this thread I was running a mullet and was still hesitant to go full 29. With 32 being on the horizon I didn't want to sit around this time. For about a year now I have been trying to get a 32" wheel set for...

Just got back from my time in Denmark. Had a blast, I could totally live there, really enjoyed my time out there. Got to do a lot of sight seeing the bike.

Thanks! Been doing a lot of rearranging in the garage. Just trying to keep it tidy and easy to move bikes in and out but also easy to get to what I need. Went from no Tvs to 2 real fast. The plan is the top one has an Apple TV hooked up and used for TV stuff. The bottom one will have...

Never posted a follow up on the PC case. I got some panels made but the shop did not do the radii correctly. Little bummed on that but not enough that I've done anything about it lol. Just been using the pc for a couple months now. Getting back into bike weather now. Training to do the Coast...

Here is the first prototype all printed up. Pretty stoked on it. Time to start working on V2.

Barn floor is finally done. Now to start prepping it for the CNC's so we can move them once all this snow melts. Current side project I am working on is a new PC case. I bust built up a new PC and have always really enjoyed the SFF (small form factor) stuff. Decided I wanted to design and...
