This bike is more modern than most of the ones on this thread but it clearly owes a lot to the French 650b constructeur bikes. The 1993 Bridgestone XO 2 has road bike geometry and 26 inch wheels since in '93 that gave you fat tires. It is a very capable gravel bike and a fine road machine. I run 26 x 1.75 tires and 3 x 8 gearing. With a 44/32/22 triple and 11-28 cassette, the bike can handle any terrain.
