I built a trig as a flat bar with Shimano flat mount brakes (UR3000 I think) and 700×40 tyres, could go bigger at the front not much bigger at the rear, I heard 45 could fit but I’m not sure at the rear.
I already had the wheels but it did have the benefit of raising the BB a bit so less rock strikes off road.
I ran it as both 2x grx 400 with 46/30 and 11-34 cassette with tiagra flat bar shifters and 1x with 40t grx chainring (it’s the same chainset for both) and and 11-46 with the 5120 mech
I did size up on the frame to go flat bar but was in between medium and large anyway.

I had this on my 55 a couple of times. Hold down the light button i think for 15 seconds, should do a reset. Worked for me.

I’m going to try some of the Stanley/Stella. What’s the sizing like? Im normally a large, do they come up small?

I use my rigid MTB mainly on road and gravel and have slaughters front and rear. Nice and quick for that but wouldn’t feel confident in them on anything more technical

Thanks for the suggestions, will take a look.

The 150mm fork is just so i can use what i have, i suppose i can always adjust it down if it gives more options

I used the toolbox yesterday. Straight forward and no issues so far after removing all the amazon bloat

?

Thanks both for the reply.

The 27.5 fork is 42mm offset, looking at the specs the 29er would be either 46 or 51, im just waiting to find out. This would be using the 27.5 wheel

Thanks everyone for the quick replies, will check them all out. Are the deores the 501?

Try these

Thanks everyone

Someone mentioned to me that as its a longish bike the front might be twitchy with a carbon fork uphill, looks like i can ignore that and get cracking with ordering a fork and some decent rolling tyres.

I would, you are taking about 1 service probably. For the sake of maybe £50 extra (if a minor service next) it should be easier to sell even if it doesnt increase the value

@scruff

Could you let me know which bike you fitted 2.1’s on please? Looking at doing something similar

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. The standard wheels are ARAYA DM-713 rims (ERTO 15-622) with formula cx20/22 hubs.

Thanks for the reply, that was the way i was leaning.
