Miele Aries 500 with a few upgrades. Schwalbe billy bonkers, Cardiff harlech saddle. Time will tell if it’s any good. Might return it and get a brooks, was only $50 cheaper than a b17 from Amazon. But thought I’d support my LBS and try something different. Also added fenders. Next up is a rack, handlebars, grips, pedals, and down the line maybe a conversion to 1×10 and some custom wheels. I’m happy with it so far after my first ride!

  1. Nice bike.
    I’ve got a stumpjumper with the same BMX type rear brake, how do you like that compared to a normal cantilever in the back?
