Add in some water bottles, a Garmin eTrex 30x, and a SPOT Gen 3 and it's ready for action. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1531922874896-9QPPJ7BS25XA2LDDFETR/IMG_3246.JPG The Fleet - Nick’s Mosaic for Trans South Dakota I mounted up a pair of Goodyear Connector 40mm tires for Trans South Dakota. They offer durability and a good blend of fast rolling traction. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1531922919762-3J26ET3WFX0TLQIA401B/IMG_3248.JPG The Fleet - Nick’s Mosaic for Trans South Dakota Revelate Design's Terrapin 8L seatpack harness/drybag combination is the perfect size for my lighter load. It's super stable thanks to its new mounting system and the drybag keeps contents well protected. It will carry extra clothes, a small first aid kit, body care essentials, and charging cords. The frame bag carries a spare tube, tools, Dynaplug, a small lock, and an emergency bivy. The Bolder Bikepacking top tube bag is for food. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1531922981105-0YAYWR7GYCO9VP7YQZRQ/IMG_3249.JPG The Fleet - Nick’s Mosaic for Trans South Dakota While I left the 42/30 chainrings alone, I installed a SRAM 11-36 cassette instead of the Shimano 11-40 I used for Tour Divide. The 11-36 gives smaller jumps, nice for flatter roads. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1531923015720-O52QUO76BB9BJC1OJH7C/IMG_3250.JPG The Fleet - Nick’s Mosaic for Trans South Dakota Gone are the front dynamo wheel, replaced by a Shimano XTR Race front wheel. Also taken off are the K-Lite headlight, switch, and Sinewave Revolution USB charger. The Zipp Vuka Clip-ons were supremely comfortable during Tour Divide and I'm excited for more time in them knocking out the miles on South Dakota's plains. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1531923051741-7ZJGHWN296GIBONH42U3/IMG_3252.JPG The Fleet - Nick’s Mosaic for Trans South Dakota We don't expect to ride at night much, if at all. But I always want a good headlight in case of unexpected problems. Bontrager's Ion 800 R is super bright and has a daytime flash mode that I'll use on the busier roads near Mount Rushmore. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1531923077198-73FXV6ING8J17XJS66X2/IMG_3257.JPG The Fleet - Nick’s Mosaic for Trans South Dakota I loved the Redshift Shockstop stem on Tour Divide and never considered taking it off for Trans South Dakota. But I did lower it two centimeters to achieve a more aggressive position. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1531923104798-2BCVA31GBKBHGOV1RFC0/IMG_3259.JPG The Fleet - Nick’s Mosaic for Trans South Dakota I'm running the same chainrings that I ran for all of Tour Divide. The chain and brake pads were installed in Steamboat Springs during Tour Divide and they have plenty of life left. On the other hand, all the mud and grit of Tour Divide did a number on the seals of the Enduro XD15 bottom bracket. The bearings are in great shape though. So until I source a new set of seals, I'm running an XTR bottom bracket. http://rambleur.com/the-fleet/2018/4/23/nicks-trans-iowa-specialized-diverge monthly 0.5 2026-01-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1524533414256-KE10BH7S8L9SGEIS2XP0/IMG_2700.JPG The Fleet - Nick’s Trans Iowa Specialized Diverge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1524539390980-IL82MBVBA7A2QC56L28O/IMG_2702.JPG The Fleet - Nick’s Trans Iowa Specialized Diverge Sinewave Beacon headlight/USB charger (supplemented by a Coast headlamp on Bontrager Circuit helmet) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1524539571282-ZOC3890FU9WZ78S2OJDX/IMG_2704.JPG The Fleet - Nick’s Trans Iowa Specialized Diverge Navigation is cue sheet only at Trans Iowa, thus the homemade clipboard and wireless Cateye computer.

It also allows me to switch between two shift maps that I've customized. In the future, using Shimano's updated internal battery and a firmware update, any 11-speed Di2 bike will be able to run Synchro Shift. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1467658014882-IPJWQRU72ZNJO6OOSXH1/image-asset.jpeg The Fleet - Mosaic Orange Crush Adventure Bike I hit up my buddies at Industry Nine for a rear hub.

This gives me access to a wide ratio cassette and a clutch rear derailleur for good chain retention over bumpy gravel roads. It's worth nothing that this is actually far easier with SRAM and doesn't require an adapter. I used a section of Nokon shift housing for the short section from the frame to the Tanpan. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1464050081166-8NCKNHT7ZK4QK2IHANJL/image-asset.jpeg The Fleet - Black Mountain Cycles Pink Panther Mega tire clearance even with a 41.5mm tire.

I put together 2 documents to help me with pacing and resupplies. The pacing notes may go straight into a trash can if weather throws me some big curve balls. But doing the research required to make them was extremely educational. I also carry all the cables necessary to reboot and upload to my Garmin GPS devices. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1496619189913-DEI74K0W8SMI1R5YUK7Z/image-asset.jpeg Ramblings - 2017 Tour Divide Bike and Gear Here's my sleep system. I use a Borah Gear bivy, Exped pad and pillow, and an Enlightened Equipment quilt. The small yellow ball is a bag used to inflate the sleeping pad. There's a mosquito net to help with both sleep and on-bike insect encounters. Inside the bivy, you can see a small yellow pocket. I stuck that to the inside of the bivy and keep ear plugs in it. http://rambleur.com/ramblings/2017/5/16/the-goldilocks-bag-bolder-bikepacking-custom-top-tube-bag monthly 0.5 2026-01-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/567e20ed4bf118911ff89620/1494951061404-ERE2P0M4S1F5NSIH4FYQ/image-asset.jpeg Ramblings - The Goldilocks Bag - Bolder Bikepacking Custom Top Tube Bag My new Bolder Bikepacking custom top tube bag.
