Wow - I remember more French than I realized! I think you are good. Flat black with silver stripe is my choice too.

Black Friday sale with some additional discounts are calling me. I have some time on the additional discount code so i'm resisting the hasty decision. The black wheels are 25% off and silver are 15% off right now.

I've been watching the SKS Infinity Universal Rack with MIK System for some time. I got a 25% off Black Friday code so I pulled the trigger. I'll share details when it arrives. I'm still considering the wheel upgrade too.

Infinity light installed on the rack. I like how it fits in the space between the rack frame and is lower than the top of the rack- thoughtful design. Time to bring the bike in for winter cleaning and to install the rack.

Picked up some different pedals and wrenches after Christmas. I’ll swap them when I do the cleanup.

New stem arrived! RaceFace had a sale so I picked up new bars/stem for my daughter's project bike and got a stem of my own. It's not the same line as the bars but with the sale it was about the same price as a generic Amazon stem. I like it so far.

Someone upgraded to 700x32c and there was discussion around moving to 35Cs or 38Cs but no actual installs. After some additional research, I purchased 700x35C Schwalbe Marathon GT Tours in October and managed to get several late season rides before winter arrived. Improved ride on surface streets and still grippy and handles well.

Riding decreased due to a job change and some other challenges in my personal life. A fair amount of the 2020 miles included my daughter riding a tagalong bike behind me.
The Marathon GT Tours are great tires but heavy compared to the original Spicer K-Guards. With all of the dedicated trails in Central Ohio, my riding has changed. I no longer worry about the challenges of surface streets and miss the light, nimble, and responsive feel of the original tires. I have contemplated a tire change but had a hard time justifying the change... until now. The GT Tours have found a new home on my curbfind Trek 730 Multitrack and will be replaced with Marathon Racers in the same 700x35 size. https://www.schwalbetires.com/Marathon-Racer-11100290

also consider the Panaracer GK SS if you are looking for 35mm multi purpose tires

probably weigh less than the Schwalbe Marathon Racer - and roll better

had them on my Quick 1 D for a while - they worked well … they actually measured close to 37mm installed … they are now on mrs t2p FX 7.5

I'll keep that in mind and probably pick those up for my wife's bike. I'm guessing that the Marathon Racer will feel faster than the GT Tour

Tires arrived and got one installed only to discover the second one was the incorrect size. Contacted 365cycle on Sunday afternoon about the wrong tire and had a response within a hour. They’re sending the replacement asap and provided a return label. I’m happy with the service so far.

These are definitely lighter than the other Marathons I had on it.

Replacement tire arrived yesterday from 365cycle and installed. I am using Schwalbe tubes which are heavier than the Bell tubes I use on other projects. I might consider a tube swap in the future but as of now, the Marathon Racers are much lighter than the old tires. Come on spring and it looks like 65 degrees in Central Ohio on Sunday.

With it being sunny and 65 in central Ohio, I managed to get 13 miles on the Quick this afternoon. The first 6.5 miles were part of a family ride to the book dropoff at the library, a stop for DQ (my daughter bought!), and then back home. That ride averaged about 8mph with my wife setting the pace on the Verve 3. I grabbed the second 6.5 miles by myself and averaged just shy of 12 MPH. The Marathon Racers are much lighter than the old tires, rolled easier, and had nice grip. The bike feels much more like it did when it wore the Schwalbe Spicer K-Guards I'm happy with the upgrade.




Also, I raised the saddle height on the pink Quick 24… this will be her last season riding it if she keeps growing like she is.

Trav1s You've inspired me to get off my butt, and stop talking about upgrading my bike and actually do it. Parts are starting to add up Now just waiting on my Crankset.
