Please recommend me a quick tailor.

Hey all,

Long story short, I'm getting married on 7/7 and my suit has been taking far longer to ship than anticipated, and the tailor I've communicated with won't be able to work with me after all if the suit does arrive 7/1 as it is now scheduled to.

The good news is that I tried on the display model of the suit, and I know that I'll only need the pant legs hemmed. There are no other essential alterations. Does anyone have a recommendation for a tailor I could call who might be able to take a rush order for hemming?

Thanks!

New bars day!

Got some wet gravel laps in to get the Ritchey El Camino bars dialed on my Otso Fenrir.

There's something uniquely satisfying about hitting natural features on a fully rigid.

Went out and visited some trails further inland than I've ever ridden, and I made the right decision to bring the Stooge.

Is the Duro Crux just a burpy tire?

I hope this isn't too low effort, I can't think of another community where I expect other members to be riding fast chunk on 29+ tires.

Has anyone else had burping issues with the Duro Crux tubeless model, or know potential fixes? I'm a pretty light rider and I'm running the plus sized cushcore, but at any pressure below 15 psi I inevitably burp sealant, usually when hitting braking bumps in berms or unavoidable roots at speed, and the occasional flat landing. Not enough to lose much pressure, but there's always streaks of sealant on the sidewall which I'd love to get under control.

I don't have the same problem with the Oxbow in the rear (~17.5 psi), and it was a bit tighter to install.

Thanks in advance for any ideas!
