Should've gone Tune because #weightweenie while still keeping the balleur anodize. Before I bought my spooky, I was going to buy lightweight alloy clincher climbing wheels. Pacenti SL23 v2 + Sapim CXray + Tune Mig/Mag = 1310g @ 20/24 for a little over $900

white industry laced to tubeless...? ? ? ? yea/nay.
I have a tubeless ready wheelset already but I want to start fleshing out the Kona and moving away from stock parts. So I could just go for it.

Of course tubeless. Schwalbe One tubeless, I think you'd probably be on a cross tire though.

They're still lighter than the rest of my wheelsets, so thats a plus.
I do buy lighter things on occasion, but my bike will never be weight weenie light.

Should I put some 38's (and maybe some centerpulls) on the Steamroller and do the short course?

You should know that the rivet fell out of the rear brake lever. I didn't want to have to replace the whole thing, so I put a piece of wire through the holes.

If you haven't checked out GCN's youtube channel yet -- do yourself a favor and watch some or all of them! GCN is geared more towards road cycling (geared bikes) but almost all of their videos on eat/training etc can apply to FG/SS..

shove something down your foodhole every 15-30 mins with 20ish grams of carbs, and right before a big climb/effort if you know its coming.
drink water every time you eat. the drier the food the more water it will take to digest (think clif bar or crackers [lots of water needed] vs dates or a banana [less water needed, has more water in it already])
finish a bottles worth of water every 45-60 mins.
dont redline the entire time. concentrate more on the exhale and let the inhale happen naturally.
profit.

easiest and one of the best energy bars: equal parts dates/nut of choice/dried fruit (non sulphured) put in food processor (blender works but you gotta keep stoking it with a spatula which can be annoying) till it becomes a ball
put it between 2 pieces of wax paper and flatten it out, refrigerate and cut into your favorite polygon. wrap em in paper or foil and you wont get sticky hands either
