0/10, not collectable objects.

Geometry is too relaxed
Also, is that the "when you find out one of your friends is a bigot" guy behind the bike?

you don't want to admit it but it's true.

Rigid is my favourite, it makes trail riding a challenge. I'm glad Surly are holding the torch for rigid and augmented it with plus tyres. I think 29+ full rigid bikes are the best fun like Jones plus, Krampus and ECR.

The new non-corrected Surly Troll looks pretty sweet too.

This.

I've owned a couple different 80's mountain bikes and on trails the geometry makes them handle like boats. Totally rad for bombing down a smooth twisty trail or a gravel fire road, but the long wheelbase really limits what you can do on more technical trails. I have modern CX bike and would much, much rather ride it on a rough mountain bike trail than any 80's mountain bike.

Comfy and fun

>>1015505
True, I took pic related on some ez pz trails and it was fun, but once shit got technical you gotta be careful or walk.

I only bought it for a winter commuter though, I have some Schwalbe Snow Studs for when things get icey.

>>1015611
Classic 650b wheels (1 3/8" wide) should fit fine on a 26" MTB frame. Brakes will be fucky but it makes for a great city bike.
