@q_factor.3d out in the wild 🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳 The q-plug system held up perfectly today at @highlandsgravel . About 8 miles in, I saw a guy with a rear puncture running DUBNITALS. That scared the crap out of me, as I was essentially running the same tire. Thankfully, I did not puncture, but if I did I would’ve been prepared.

1,240ml on a size small frame… with a true single pivot. The rear suspension on the @laufcycles Elja is worth any space sacrifice so the ability to still hold 2x 620ml bottles is dialed. @bikedawntodusk Sidburn 8 + the Aqua Shred bottle is the perfect space saving setup. As always if you want to support the LUNCHBOX devo team use code “LUNCHBOXDEVO” at @biketiresdirect for 10% off your entire order 😎 😛 If you want to support me personally and upgrade your flat fixing setup check out @q_factor.3d perchance 🔥👌🚀 #justride #laufelja #solideogloria

In my mind for a long time, I thought @q_factor.3d products were gravel specific. With how much they appear in the gravel market, that’s just an association I had. Well, that’s not the case. I just installed the q-plug system on my 2024 Scott Spark RC, and it ain’t going anywhere. Super secure next to the bottle cage. As someone who’s completely destroyed tires in some of the Bella Vista singletrack, this’ll come in handy. @scottsportsusa @q_factor.3d
