What's the deal with the red spokes on each wheel? I see that they line up with the valve stem, but I'm curious if that's their only purpose?

(Not complaining or criticising in any way ... I'm just genuinely curious! )

On the stem - it's comfy at that height. That's all I care about .

On the saddle bag. I got caught once with two flats on the one ride, so I want a bag big enough to two tubes, and a couple of tubes take up more space than they seem like they should. I hate carrying stuff in my jersey pockets, so big ol' ugly saddle bag it is.

Cheers,
Simon.

+1 in defence of the properly sized saddle bag! And for having a Trek - seems they are a rare thing these days.

Good onya snark

+1 I aree. I had just as big a bum bag till I changed to panniers on mine.

Wasn't having a go at you, just a dig at the nah sayers....

As a concept, it is just extending the utility of Rule #40...*

*Yes, applying the rules to a MTB is ironic...

I love that hahaha. I'm writing down notes for my next build.

I quite like the look of them. A nice touch, nice bike too.

I don't have a garage door or a laundry basket, but I do have a levitating wine bottle.

Its a custom 0-0 stationary training cassette.

I've lost my cassette lock ring tool so can't get the cassette off my old race wheels at this stage...its driving me crazy because all I want to do is take the eastons for a spin!
