About Alu Minautix
Wir sind seit Jahren leidenschaftlich gern mit Freunden und mit dem Fahrrad unterwegs. Öffentliche Straßen meiden wir allerdings aus Sicherheitsgründen. Da der neue Bikecomputer die Touren jetzt immer schön aufzeichnet, werden die auch hier hochgeladen und kommentiert.

Today the last stainless screws arrived and so I was finally able to finish building the new Crosser. The screws for the adapter for the disc brakes were still missing, otherwise one might have improvised.
I slaughtered my "old" Kona Jake the Snake CR 2016 to rebuild it. I had various problems with the Kona right from the start, e.g. the frame was simply not stiff enough for my taste and also a bit too short.
An aluminum frame from bike-components is now in use here. The "Flint" gravel frame in size XL. The sloping top tube is not exactly my taste, but I couldn't find anything better with my demands on the frame geometry. The carbon fork comes from Bombtrack and the steering angle is quite flat, as is typical for Gravelt.
The first impression on asphalt and gravel is promising. Very smooth and direct. Not quite as lively and agile as the Kona, but extremely stable. I am curious how it goes on.3 days ago

A trail tour over the Ettersberg on today's Memorial Day. Exactly 76 years ago the concentration camp was liberated by American soldiers. Part of the tour leads over the embankment of the former Buchenwaldbahn. It is somehow strange and oppressive to drive there, considering how many people were deported to the extermination camps there.

a little tour after work.
Over the winter I created a couple of new paths that are now being tried out bit by bit. Today was already very promising.
A wrong way was there too, well.
At the moment it is pitch black in no time, but with the new battery-powered headlight it is no problem even off-road.March 27, 2021

In places a hand's breadth of water is still missing and the first floodplains are flooded.

the fastest at the moment were up in about 30 minutes,
I'll try my hand at it in May.
my goal: 45 minutes - let's see if I can do it
I already know most of the route from multiple Stoneman tours - it's going to be toughFebruary 4, 2021
