Mid life crisis = crazy choices!

Been wanting to get a HT for a while but money is tight so decided to ditch the FS for a while.

My Trek Fuel was stripped and nearly all parts moved over. Needed a new BB (trek was press fit) and new dropper cable. Other than that it all went over smoothly. Also went to a 30t from 32t as clearance was a little tight.

Feels great to ride. Very different but great all the same. Experimenting with stem length and bar rise etc to get it dialled in, but happy so far.

Cables will get a tidy once bars/stem all sorted.

When the ground gets hard you'll be wanting your FS back 🙂

On a tarn a swap to 3" b+ rubber will sort that :D.

It is quite tight around the chain stay isn't it. I found crank - chain stay clearance was limited as well.
