Christini 2WD mountain bike owners

[Cromoth]

Hello. Any Christini owners & former owners out there? Roll call, pictures, etc.

If you never owned one, please search the forum or post a thread or send me a private message. These bikes offer a unique riding experience which if you have questions about, is better handled on another thread. Anything about the theory or what's it like, etc would be nice to have another thread or add to existing ones.

What mods, upgrades have you done? I'm considering tubeless & electric motor later. Taking my dog via roads to nearby trails is one of my favorite ways to exercise. 20deg F is about our limit.

I've kept the Christini stock since getting a KidzTandem was a priority. That's how I get the dog to the trails currently but I've been wishing I could bike the trails instead of hike. With a 1 wheel trailer, should be possible to do both.

Here's a photo album of 1 loop, including a Trek Farley 5 demo (2016 on 4.8's). Dbl click a pic for comments, I think. https://goo.gl/photos/Va1Pm2qzV5tMxPDR8

I've still got mine. Built it from a frame kit about ten years ago. Full XT, Mavic UST rims. Didn't build it to be super light, as it was meant to be more of a slow/medium speed adventure bike. Worked really great pulling a fully loaded BoB trailer off road.

Very nice, red is awesome. Need to get a Bob. Ours is too wide for traffic:

Might be last day of studded tires this season
