My road bike currently has a 53/39 crank and 11-25 cassette, and I've come to terms with the fact that I need some lower climbing gears :) Ideally looking for a 10s 11-30 cassette, open to 11-28 as well. Potentially open also to a 52-38 double chainring. Sadly my crankset (Ultegra 6700) has 130bcd, which can't accommodate compact chainrings...eventually I'd like to upgrade the crankset (ideally to something 160mm or 165mm) but probably going to wait a bit on that. Happy to pay shipping, or pick up in the CA high desert area. I'm also in the process of putting together a bikepacking rig and am looking for bags/bottle cages/etc. Particularly looking for a handlebar bag that will fit on Nitto Forest Ambler bars (essentially a narrower version of Crust Jungle Runner bars); a small seatpost bag (due to low seat/tire clearance); a top tube bag; and water bottle cages. Open to other frame storage components, too. Thanks!

In the process of building out a Surly ECR frame and looking for bags. Especially looking for a handlebar bag that will fit on Nitto Forest Ambler bars (essentially a narrower version of Crust Jungle Runner bars) and a relatively small seatpost bag (due to low seatpost/tire clearance). Also looking for a top tube bag, water bottle cages, and a rear rack; and open to other storage options as well. Currently planning to get a custom bag for the frame, but if you have one that would likely fit an XS ECR frame well, feel free to let me know! Happy to pay shipping, or pick up in the CA high desert area. I'm also looking to get some lower gears for my road bike, which is currently set up with an Ultegra 6700 53/39 chainring and 11-25 cassette. Open to an 11-30 cassette, a compact chainring for my current crankset (Ultegra 6700, 130 bcd), or buying a new 160 or 165 mm crankset with compact or super-compact chainrings. Thanks!
