For what it’s worth I own a 2019 Fargo and a first generation Wolverine that’s been everywhere. I can’t stay off the Wolverine. Thinking I wasted my money on the Fargo but still a kick ass bike

Got the Rims! Thanks for the quick communication and shipping

Good condition. No dents dings or cracks. Just scuffs and scratches from use. $50 for the pair plus shipping.

That’s sad to hear. I hope she recovers and you guys can take your dream trip. Prayers

I'll show you what I bring to the party...... This is the bike in question running the 60 mm stem as it is currently set up.

Some pretty nice pics everyone. Jones bars are really cool. I’ve owned a set in the past.

I have 40 mm of spacers as well. I bought my 2019 frame and fork and didn’t even have to shorten the steerer. Tonight I switched back to the 60. The 80 with 17 degree rise makes so much sense yet I was on the fence because as good as it felt riding, the 60 felt that much better. The 60 mm stem still has the bars higher than the saddle thanks to the Fargo’s high stack height and long head tube. Another thing about the 60 is due to the arc my hands travel downward to rest on the hoods going from one stem to the other, I can change the angle of the bar to accommodate without bothering wrist angles on the hoods AND have a better angle on the drops as well. But I haven’t been on a decent ride since I started playing around and the miles will be the tell all. Geometry is a funny thing.

I never thought about the aero bar setup. Good point. I switched back and forth between a straight seat post and an older race face turbine post which has around 2 cm setback. With the straight post I just can’t seem to get my CG set right to where I feel like I am balanced if I lift my hands regardless of stem length. With the setback post I can get that balanced feeling so the setback is a no brained to me. Position behind the bottom bracket seems to affect this more than a longer stem.

How high are your bars in relation to your seat? With the 60 mm stem my bars are at seat level or a touch above and with the 80 they are at least an inch above measuring from the flats that is.

How many of you run drop bar bikes instead of flatbar bikes and set your drops for more upright riding like flats with a short stem instead of leaning forward like traditional drop setup? I’ve tried two stems with my Fargo/cowchipper setup and both feel pretty good and I can’t decide between the two. One is 80 mm with a 17 degree rise and the other is a 60 mm with a standard 7 degree rise. The shorter reach seems to negate the extra rise but I can’t decide which feels better. weird huh? I’ve never had a bike that reacted this well with such radically different stems so this is weird to me. I wanna say go with the 60 and be more upright like a flat bar rig but then logic says don’t be cramped in the cockpit. Share some setups if you got them and tell me how they ride on longer dirt road travels.

Yes 2019 Fargo with carbon firestarter fork. They clear the rear on an i39 dually rim with a “tight” 1/4” each side. May be closer to 3/16 but unsure on exact measurement.  Honestly they cleared just fine and I never had an issue while I was riding, but I noticed some paint chips on the inside of the chain stays and I only assumed it was from the mud clearance.  I could put some clear tape or gorilla tape on the inside of my chain stays and the problem would be eliminated as that is recommended when riding in muddy conditions anyways. But I had been wanting to get some smaller tires and I guess this is a perfect excuse to get the wife to agree LOL.

60 TPI, set up tubeless on my own bike. Ridden 4 times on Iowa gravel. They are too tight to my bike and don't offer enough mud clearance. No damage, punctures (that I'm aware of), cuts, slashes etc. Just dirty from use. Picture shows tires on the bike. $90 or reasonable offer for the pair plus shipping and handling.

SOLD!

Thanks. Building a new bike now so all of a sudden a seat pack is on the back burner lol

Look up Hyke n Bike. I bought a nice 800 fill goose down bag from them last year for 100 bucks or maybe 125. Can't recall now. 3 season. Those guys are really cool. I called and talked to one of the owners and he sent me a promo code for a discount. Don't get a bag too small cause the dead air space is where the heat remains.
