    Thanks Dave for posting! Definitely want to join one of these rides this year. Of course my pace has substantially slowed down in the past year so will be a slow social pace when I show up for a ride.

    Good point Cole. Probably a good excuse for someone to start a Bedminster gravel thread🤘

    Good to meet you as well Tim! Good to meet @Dave Taylor. Thanks Mare for the tour. She is such a strong rider! Hope to make more rides going forward in your part of the state. At least a few times a year. Work schedule is tough as well…

    That’s in my town. They have a new mature palm tree planted every few years. I recall there being some type of cover with a heater over it but did not survive this winter. That’s money when someone can afford to do that…

    So competed my mountain bike to gravel conversion. Started out with an Ibis DV9 trail bike, installed a pair of Thunder Burts (crazy fast tires) and realized it’s not going to work for 60 mile rides at Bedminster. I still wanted a drop bar setup so went drastic in my conversion… Remolded the...

    Unfortunately 34 appears to be the largest. Will see how it works for the gravel I will be riding as well as groups I may ride with. I don’t plan on riding 40mph on the downhills so may not be an issue as to steep descents. Not yet sure how it will work on gradual downhills for places I plan on...

    I understand Bob. Every time we ride together it’s Ringwood. Once one gets used to riding Ringwood at least twice a week during the warmer months it’s tough to ride road or gravel. Classic one should ride what they enjoy. After all this is MTBNJ.Com, but luckily is open to all styles of riding...

    Mountain bike to gravel bike conversions

    Thanks guys for the input. I’m trying to figure out top end as Bedminster gravel appears to be a combo of smooth gravel and road so am looking to figure out if the top end is tall enough on my bike. I am still trying to figure out how a 12 speed 34 ring and 50 Eagle (pie plate) cassette compares...

    I’m trying to figure out the gearing. So 34 front with an Eagle 50 rear 12 speed. How does that compare to a typical gravel bike one by setup?
