Very interesting! If the AC has higher stack height for the same reach, does that mean it sits you more upright?

I think I’d prefer the 2x of the AC, which I’ve been thinking about. That’s the...

Why don’t they fit? I thought most bikes could be fit to most people by adjusting the seatpost, saddle, stem, etc.

Hey guys,

I’ve narrowed my bike choices down to either the All-City Cosmic Stallion (GRX) or the Ribble CGR in steel, links below. Anyone have experience with either of these bikes? I like the...

Man, this super helpful. Opening up to alu bikes would be a huge help for the reason you describe, and because there are just so many more alu bikes. Do you think there’s a difference in longevity...

I hear you, it does look like the Surlies and Salsas are good options. Do you have a P600? I’m not ruling it out, just worried that I’d want to replace it in 10 years.

I did look for Pinion bikes and found the Co-Motion Americano and Divide. They are very expensive, though. On the other hand, I don’t love the styling of the Priority and I feel like it’s not...

Tumbleweed Prospector for Commuting?

Hey guys,

I’ve been looking for a do-everything bike for suburban commuting through paved roads, gravel paths, and a small field (plus joy rides in the woods and around town) for a while and was...

That’s a cool bike, I don’t think it’s uncool at all. And thanks for sharing. I do think maybe I can probably just make a gravel bike that fits my height work. I’m now looking at a Niner RLT Steel...

I suppose I just meant thinner than the monster tires that would come stock, not truly skinny road tires.

I’ve also just found the Niner RLT 9 Steel, which I think I’m going to go with if I can...

So, that’s what the guy at the bike store just said and it makes sense. The frame really starts making a difference when you’re on tires pumped to 90 psi or something in that area. At that pressure,...

Thanks to everyone for the advice, I’m ready everything and adding options to my list.

Anyone think I’m being silly by restricting my choices to steel? I understand aluminum to be a bumpier ride,...

Yea, that’s a really good idea that I honestly didn’t even think of. I think I’m going to go through that process this weekend to figure out what feels good. I’m also going to test ride some bikes at...

I should have been more clear. Expensive is fine, but I suppose I was using that term relatively. Since this is a bump around town and fitness bike, I think $4k is pretty expensive. I’d just feel...

Well, when I said expensive I meant like a few thousand, not like $9,000. At the end of the day, I’m just cruising around with my family or to the donut shop, or doing 10-15 mile exercise rides.

Maybe, but isn’t the height of the saddle over the handle bars really the key? I could be thinking about that wrong. Honestly, this is surprisingly confusing. And the problem is, in my city I mostly...

Steel Gravel Bikes with the Most Upright/Relaxed Posture
