Best product development since dropper seat posts. As a person who pushes the limits of what you can get away with pressure wise in a tubeless setup, I can confirm that this setup will take ride quality to another level

Picked up a new bike before the 26" wheel becomes extinct!
Not owned a Yeti before, really pleased with the bike but have stripped it to rebuild it with some different components. Got some SRAM XX1, Bos suspension and Enve wheels incoming.
Photos were taken at one of my local riding spots, Cannock Chase in the West Midlands, UK.

Would love to attend the Yeti Tribe gathering. However it is unlikely that I will make it, living in the UK, family commitments, and working away from home make attending any kind of events difficult to organise at best.
A local shop near me has a "Mini gathering each year" I might try and tag along for this event if my work schedule has me at home and not stuck offshore.
Still amazed at how quick Mr Tomac was on a drop bar equipped C-26 Yeti bike, the geometry must have been horrible to ride that fast with. Much respect to Johhny T, hell of a rider and partially responsible for Yeti's cult following.

thats next on my list a brompton there are other folding bikes but in my opinion the brompton is the best .
i like the colour of your bike -
thought you were a fixed gear purist Jii?
great looking bike, something about all black everything . . .

The stable is now 2/3 geared Love fixed gears and still have one but touring or long (+100 km) rides on a fixed gear is definitely not the best experience, been there done that etc. Doing a ~720 km trip in may over five days and gotten quite interested in randonneuring/brevets too so yeah gears

Great hobby & I couldn't imagine long hauls on a single speed bike. Great hobby

I'm going for the ZTR Alpha 340:s since I need the rims to manage 28c road tyre pressures. Got Novatec 411/412 hubs so should build up to about 1,5-1,6 kg for the wheelset without being crazy expensive. Will probably try road tubeless too. I'll keep the current wheelset for crappy condition riding.
The 720k ride is just a ride we've been planning with some friends, nothing official. Probably gonna do the shortest brevet (200 km) before that, probably around easter.

got new shoes last week….hopefully they will fix my hot feet problem.
My goal this year is 2000 miles on the road bike. I'm a chubby dude already, but I'm pushing through that 260 pound ceiling right now and I'm not too thrilled.
2000 miles. And I start today.

Good for you. Enjoy the ride. What shoes did you get?

having an annoying time finding a 15mm allen key during the weekend to replace the freehub body on the new shimano 788 xt hub. so nice of shimano to change the size from a fairly accessible 14, to a much harder to find (without buying theirs for 50 bucks) key.
i think ill still hold off before trying this method
