I'm now full fat again.
After selling the 907 and planning on going 27.5+ for summer bikepacking duties, a test ride has swayed me back to full fat. A 28t chainring with a 42t rear just goes up those loose slopes so easily. The frame on the 907 wasn't the best for bikepacking duties because of the curved shape of the top tube. It was a pig to get stuff to fit inside the triangle.
I found the 650 wtb 2.8 tyres I tried a compromise of faster 29s trying to get the air cushioning and grip of fat. Fat just grips and cushions the ride.
The 907 is now in Wales and possibly the Netherlands. I miss it but it was a bike in every term, everyone had ridden it*. It was a cheap hussy!
A new steel Charge cooker 2 in bright blue is on the way, with a really nice discount. Wish it was here for tomorrows ride in Wales, but it'll be here for next weekend in Cumbria
