I have been advised to get the 70mm undrilled rim for dirt usage. Have you tried wider rims than 50mm on your trails? How has that 50mm drilled rim held up?

The geometry is the same so the balance points and handling are the same. The bike just has a little more mass to it and it's a little stiffer. I did use smaller tubes on this frame than on the Ti frame since steel is stiffer. The H-Bar Loop is welded directly to the steel steerer and the star nut is in the bottom. Headset adjustment is done at the lower fork clamp. I never painted this one. I just wanted to see how it would ride. Maybe I'll paint it later. I'm riding the second one now and it's black.

I can see the clamp on the big version of the 3rd photo. Ingenious design. Might be a bit expensive when posting it though (due to the shape). oh, tell a lie.

Is it an all in one stem/bar/steerer? I'm guessing there is another clamp at the fork crown but can't see from the photos. Great stuff as always Jeff.
