Doing commuting all-year round with my Kona Rove ST. Studded tires on the winter, now almost naked summer setup with Receptors.
Sweet ride, really like the tyres too
Thank you! They are super comfortable and surprisingly fast even on asphalt.
Porky piggin it on the fender(s). I like it
Damn, that’s a sexy bike. What’s your bag situation like with no rack? I love the feel of riding my bike when its stripped down and at its lightest point during the summer.
I actually do have a rack and a pannier in daily use. I took them out in anticipation of the coming event, they are just extra weight :)
I also have the chromoly Rove but in Silver. Love this bike. It is a real workhorse. I changed out the handlebars for Surly TruckStops which gives a slightly more upright riding position. Perfect for riding in town and among traffic. I run WTB Horizon’s or Ventures when it is wet.
Sweet ride!
Thank you!
