Here are current pics of my Miele Aries 650 mtb.
(Made in Canada)

I often carry my 4 YO granddaughter hence the rear child carrier.

I still needed a basket so mounted a front rack and large Wald basket.
Wheel flop is awful especially with groceries in basket but I'm used to it.

Notice crank.

It is sporting a Dura Ace triple crank thanks to a triplizer
I think the rings are 42 , 40 ,26.

I need to change out that outer ring to a 44 when I get around to it.

I'm estimating I am close to 3000 miles perhaps a bit more on this beast I've had 3 or 4 years.



The tires are Continental Contact Speed in a 26 x 2.00".
