Very nice bike. My wife got one last year. Raleigh makes really nice bikes for the money. Congrats and have a great time.

I recognize the I75 Landbridge from hiking on the Florida Trail but was wondering what the bike trails were like in the area.

I know Santos is popular but how about West of Santos on the Greenway?

Heres my beloved 2012 Cannondale Super X Ultegra.... :)

mmm... Donuts! What's the weight on those wheels? Have you tried them out in the mud yet?

Cannondale Super X and Surly Cross Check. Just built the Surly up about a month ago

Really Like that bike

I love those Super X bikes...it's a shame they don't come in any rad color schemes. I want a bright red one.

Yeah, they also need to run the gear cables along the top tube and give us a little more mud clearence on the rear end...

Okay, my Lemond Poprad upgrade is nearly done. Just wheels next.
I added the Ritchey WCS forks and Chris King headset today.

I don't take it off-road often, but here is my Bianchi Volpe. I think it's a mid-90's model. I ride this more than my (too-many) other bikes.

Another Origin 8 700CX :thumb:

And when camping (which is almost always on a gravel grind kinda ride),I usually ride this,2000 Trekstracycle...

That looks like a great frame with all the right features, including long chainstays, plenty of rack mounts and ample room for 700x40 tires. I assume it can take a road or MTB crank. The large gaps between sizes is the only issue I have with the frame.

It definitely can take a road crank (complete bikes ship with a 34/50 Tiagra).

Gaps in sizing isn't as bad as it seems at first look. With the higher bars, the 55cm fits me perfectly where my custom Kirk is a 58x56cm

two quick questions:
fork? handlebar?

nice machine!

This used to be a bunch of rocks until I crushed them into dust... :)
