Hey that’s my bike!
I am planning to try a mullet setup at some point if only to raise the BB a tad, but an extended crown race might be just the ticket, thanks for the idea.
The Bontrager wheels came with all 6 pawls and they tell me that’s standard when buying these wheels/hubs separately. Maybe the oem spec on Trek bikes only have 3 pawls. They need truing and the ratchet needs to be cleaned periodically, but they’ve been great wheels so far. I never realized how nice quick engagement is until I started single speeding with a sub 2:1 ratio.
Cheers Andrew, keep riding simple bikes on difficult terrain!
