New wheels Day 1st ride on Onyx Vesper

Maiden voyage on the Btlos i45 t800 build... and first ride with a 29 wheelset on the Swb... I like this bike even more than I did yesterday. The 29x3/2.8 maxxis tire gobble up chopy, rocky, dusty, sandy logging roads and the 29 inch wheels carry momentum far better than the 27.5's, i knew this would be the case, but didn't expect it to be as drastic of difference. And to anyone thinking about an onyx sprague clutch hub... BUY IT. the gentle yet instant engagement makes the bike ride quite a bit like a fixed gear with the fluidity of a solid connection between pedals and wheels (at least in a forward direction). I'm silly in love with this bike, The btlos wheels are ride really nicely as well, not to stiff but stiff and really responsive.

don't forget to ride your bike today

Nearly there.

Have some more custom vinyl to do on the fenders, but it’s nearly “done”
