hey all...i've got a 2012 Trex X-Cal hard tail (with recently rebuilt frankenfork), that is super light and whippy...
now that i've gotten myself a full squish rig, and all of my friends are addicted to gravel, i thought i'd join the masses, sort of...
i'm going to make a few minor modifications to my hard tail, such that it "might" be a capable gravel ride...
here's all i've got to start:
* replace 32T front chainring with 38T
* keep rear cassette (10 sp) at 11-36 (for simplicity and to reduce costs)
* swap out tires for these Teravail Sparwoods
am i..
1) stupid
2) missing anything?
3) stupid
thanks!
