    @PhoS same company, but in Corrales, NM. One of the owners is originally from New Mexico, so it’s a 7.5 mile ride from the house if you go single track way. Really cool spot that has grown over the years it’s been open, which is 3-4 I think. Was just a small old Pueblo style house at first, now they have a cool grass area with a number of chairs and tables.

    Pretty cool to post that photo and have someone know the name!

    I have a set of Nobl/Berd loaners right now. Haven't even had a chance to ride them yet but they're very cool. Pretty good value as well.

    Nice, the building does look very NM. I lived there for a good while but haven't been back in some time.

    AHH onyx, if you know you know. Been running their hubs for the past 6 years, with the new vespers on my nomad. Amazingly quiet, i love instant engagement!

    I think I’ve got 3 rides on my Nobl wheels with regular spokes and they have been amazing. I was amazed by how light they are too. I don’t have any aluminum wheels to compare them to right now but I’d bet they are lighter than my gravel wheels

    I've been thrashing the Nobls on my gravel bike all season. Had to true them after Unbound but otherwise flawless.

    I have Onyx/Nobl on my Warden. Solid hubs, instant engagement and dead silent. Excellent when poaching.

    Loud hubs have always been my jam. But it is kinda refreshing to roll in silence for a while after I service my hydras. Just the tires on hardpack being the only bike noise cutting through the forest.

    I love dead-silent hubs. I slapped some Phil Wood grease in my I9s and enjoyed silent hubs for a while before they became a giant mess. Ha

    I sort of like my I9 1/1’s. They have a great sounding buzz but not obnoxiously loud. That said, I ride with a guy who has Torches and I get jealous of the sexy noises they make.

    The 1/1s are what I have. Better when they're silent but not annoying. If my hubs are going to make a sound that's what I want them to sound like.

    BTW- Berd has a program where they will replace your existing wheelset with Berd spokes. I think the cost is around $500 or so...

    Never been happy with my float X2. I need to get some more miles on, but this thing is a huge improvement.

    Have you done the dh line off the plume trail? There’s a shop that shuttles the plume trail, but it’s at the north side of the lake.

    Been playing around on the Chameleon a lot. Swapped out to Rekons recently and like them a lot.

    I don’t look at hard tails much, but there is something about this Chameleon in yellow that just screams out to me! There’s one in one of the shops I frequent and it has always caught my eye, as it has when I’m perusing the SC website!

    I dig this bike my friend!
