Bit the bullet and swiped the card. Topstone AL 4. Teacher salary means entry level bike for me, but I couldn’t be happier.

I’ve put around 6,000 miles and 350,000 feet of gravel riding and climbing on my AL Topstone since acquiring it in late 2019. Not top of the line – but will get the job done!
Is there a chain guide retention device above your chainring? It looks like your chain angles up slightly in that area? The chain should be under that not riding on it.
