Hi

I thank you both so much. Really helpfull pictures and info for me sitting overseas in Denmark…..the bike with the maxxis TT tires is exactly what I think of looking for a gravel bike…so I’m pretty sure Evans bikes will ship a bike to Jutland in October.

Cheers and peace

Eskay : big thanks….is it possible to put some pictures up with spacing from tire to fork and in the rear from the seattube behind the bottom bracket…

I’m dreaming of this bike with a set of conti race king 2.0 and I almost think it’s possible ( really helpful with the pictures)

Att eskay : really nice all black arkose…..is the tires 42 mm width?

Really helpful so a big thank you!! Much appreciated …

Is it to much to ask how much space you have between seattube and tire and space just behind bottom bracket if that makes any sense….

Will anyone take some pictures? Interested in tire space front and back…..

Converting too tubeels can be struggle…. But a good trick is to use the tire tube…

First put the tubeless tape on the naked rim. Then put the tire on with a tire tube just like normal. Put air in the tube and make the tire “pop” out in the rim. Then you remove the tube but only loosen the tire in one side. Then fill air in the tire and normally this will help when the tubeless sealant is making the air staying in the tire. It’s also a good idea to use som extra sealant when the tire is set up the first time…

Hope my English is OK?

Att hochmatoch : Goin tubeless will change the cycling for you….. Try with some gorilla tape or kapton tape. My last bike with wtb rims didn’t work with wtbs own tape don’t no why…but I do know that tubeless is good overall.

Can you tak a picture of your bike with tire clearance both in front and in the rear ? I would really help a bike friend in Denmark ….

( James is indeed very helpful is he a dealer or ?)

Cheers

This is so cool info big Thanks….

Do you remember the tire ? Big side knobs?

And do you have pictures of the cowbell and the tires?

Cheers Rasmus

Can anyone please tell me if new models is on the way this summer ..?

Don’t want to buy one if there something “nicer” on the way?

Cheers

But the Alex rims on the arkose x is tubeless….

Ok 👌 and thanks…

I have discovered that the wheelsize 700 is the same as a 29er so a small 29er mtb Tyre will fit the arkose … Any one who hav tried it?

Is it worth the extra 450£ worth to buy the arkose 4 instead of the arkose x….coming from mtb  I don’t know anything about the specs on the bikes other then brands and so on….will at handlerbar like the salsa cow bell fit the arkose? Perhaps the hose will be to short but is there anything else I’m missing?? Cheers and happy trails

Ok and thanks

The reason why I’m Asking is because I read somewhere that the arkose will take up to 50 mm without mudgards… I have asked Evans but they can’t confirm.  Perhaps its not important anyway because the number of tires with sizing 700x50mm is very limited….

Are you coming from mtb or road?

Can you perhaps take a photo of the blue arkose with the 650? From above behind the bottom bracket to see the tire clearance…..

<span style=”font-size: 0.8rem;”>Big thanks! </span>

No Im thinking your have a good point with the arkose and it Will be a good bike…..but coming from mtb, riser bar and big wheels I need a little push 🙂

Have you measured the space between the tires and frame ? With the 700 wheels on…

Big thanks !

Do you have any experience with 700 wheels?

Is the blue arkose with the fulcrum 27.5 yours (seen picture here in this forum but can’t find it again 🙂

Great looking bike (looks like the salsa journeyman)

Hi bike People’s

because im Living in Denmark and dont have any change to try one i hope someone Can inform me.

Is there anyone With 50mm tires on ?

is the bike comfy on longer rides 4-5-6 hours? Espacially the handlebar is a big revolution for me….im Comming from 27.5+ Marin pine and cannondale beast og the east…..

cheers Rasmus
