Looks great! Where are you riding gravel? In the sourlands?
not yet, sourlands only have a few that I know like montgomery road. you need to head north start from Bedminister where theres a lot of unpave roads, pass thru Trump Golf Course where both ends you either do the climb and nice descent. I did an 86 miles with mix pave and unpave with single track trail and a long stretch of Columbia Trail which started in Califon NJ.

NICE. Another great build and kick ass paint scheme. Do you get any headset knocking on any of your bikes?
when you say HS knocking .. when you turn side to side ? if so no.

out of the saddle mainly. Im going to try another thin spacer above the stem to see if that helps. Maybe the headset adjuster is bottomed out on me.

Nice. How did you like the Schwalbe RS?

What gravel roads are these? Looks like some nice areas for NJ. I got a bit tired of the Colombia Trail.

oh its fast compare the cinturato H that I have or maybe because of the upgraded wheelset too 303s. cornering on lose gravel descent is pretty grippy too.

this is Bedminster .. the MEcca of gravel roads in northern NJ lol come by one of the Saturday we do a 33 mile that has about 18.6 miles of gravel.
