Installed them myself. Genuine TRP replacements.

I had planned this light for the Ravn since the beginning. It’s symmetrical beam make it better suited for off road. We shall see.
I got one new Rat Trap Pass with endurance casing. I meant to get two but only got one. So I put on one of the original RTP tires I had, which is still like new. Had to use a tube though which I may be able to take out later. The new tire went on the back.
Getting ready for a trip south.
Short travel. See how it goes.
Recent crash left both wheels out of true. Mike fixed but said rims are now bent and required uneven spoke tension which will go out over time.
Second set of Babyshoe Pass extralight. First set got apporximately 5,000 miles.
Velo Orange Grand Cru Nouveau Randonneur Handlebar
These bars are wider than the old ones, with a shorter reach and shallower drop. We'll see if I like them as much as the older Rando bars on my Grando.
The new saddle (Brooks B17 Imperial Narrow) was telling me to sit up higher, so I flipped the stem back up, but then decided to get a shorter stem.
Schwalbe Hans Dampf 26x2.35" knobbies. After the Coast Range Gravel Adventure 2018 I got fat tire envy watchng Eric and Sean on their 3" tires. This is as fat as I can go on this bike. Hopefully this will get me out on the trails more over the winter.
So this bike has had Compass Rat Trap Pass 2.25" slicks, Schwalbe Almotion 2.15" touring, and now these.
