Hey guys. Doing my first gravel fondo at the end of the month! Very excited and looking for a some advice, I Entered in a vintage category, (so I could buy an old rocky mountain; been looking for an excuse) It wasnt in great shape when I got it a couple weeks ago but feeling pretty good now.
The race is 80km of gravel with a little more than 1000m of climbing
Considering picking up a new fork with low travel suspension and maybe disc breaks up front but leaning towards rocking the original tange fork right now.
Not sure what handbars to rock, I have some long mtb ones, angled drops, and bullhorns
Feel like none of them will be great but I'll give them a go. Any suggestions?
Also need a new seatpost and seat but I figure I can find those on my own... unless...
