A good rim, few spokes.

The troll's alive and kicking. How sad he's wasting his energy instead of going for a ride... A cheapo :D

SPEC X KONTRA 022 (cancelled): A ride with Tommy Specialized Warsaw and an obscure road cycling club by name of Kontra 022 announced a gravel group ride two weeks ago. The weather forecast for Saturday was firm and dire: constant raining with a thunderstorm at 16:00. As I set off to get to...

I had my three motors (Specialized 1.2s, SL 1.1, and Yamaha PW-X2) completely submerged on several occasions, no ill effects. No seawater, though :D
