this spot is quite a ways away from my starting ride location so i’ve not been able to explore too much but is there an easy/low stress way to go from here to the ludlow connection for riverside commons? it seems like the path just ends
I see a good deal for a set of winter tires and rims with the above size tires. I read around and it looks like 205 is the recommended size on 16in rims vs 215. Is this size difference too big to work?

got some nitro 176 handlebars and this is a my first time setting up bars like this. It looks a bit off compared to my other drop bar bikes but I am trying to keep the drops horizontal and the levers in line with the top of the bar itself. Does this look along the right lines?
I'm building up a Niner RLT 9 Steel and I picked up a 48-34t front chain ring and I'm struggling to pick a rear cassette range. I live in Appalachia so I have some serous climbing where 25% grades are pretty normal. I've been thinking about an 11-42T but was concerned that the gaps may be too big. This'll be my first 2x bike so I don't know how that range behaves with that kind of gearing up front.
my ass needs a much smaller chainring i’m not built for this
