[Closed] New Bike Day (Titanium Content)

Please rake the beach in future. #standards

That looks rather fun.

your hub colours are miss-matched! 🤤

Been hovering over the Sonder site for a while now.
Give us more info, like your height, what size you chose, how the build went, and most importantly in a few words what it rides like.

Lovely bike, but that rear mudguard :0

Two left thumbs up 👍👍

Can’t seem to get any quoting working so here goes.

I took the picture on a beach cos there’s no way I’m showing STW the state of my garden or flooring. 😀

The hubs are both blue, impeccably matching the hope seatpost collar. The rear hub has a wahoo speed sensor on it.

I agree the rear mudhugger is super-ugly, but one of the advantages of being this age is not caring — dry arse FTW.

I’m 5’8” with a 30” inside leg and got a medium frame. I could’ve probably sized up in hindsight, or put in a 170mm dropper instead of the 125mm. The build was easy, the internal routing is guided so you just feed the hose/cable in. The only negative would maybe be the fact the rear axle uses a T40 rather than hex.

As for how it rides, my previous bike was a much-upgraded Boardman Pro 29 — the Sonder feels as fast as that did, but much more capable. There’s no comparison when the going gets downhill or rocky, this thing eats terrain. I love it 😀

Damn it, I'd very nearly convinced myself that the mountain bike was the one I wouldn't upgrade for Ti for my 50th....

Can’t beat a Ti hardtail. Looks lovely OP (apart from the mudguard)

Nice. Get a photo up without the mudguards (it’s spring ffs 😏)

Here it is, fresh off the bike stand, pre mudguard atrocities. The bars were slammed soon after...

Like a lot if I did not own a Ti Stooge I would be having one of these! Loving my Sonder Evol and you can always tell an all weather mtb by the Mudhugger 🙂

The poor thing has to live its life in Scotland. If it wasn’t all weather, I’d never use it 😉
