Two weeks ago at Granny’s Gravel Grinder, I received an incredible surprise: a brand new Lauf Seigla thanks to Chase Wark and Wark’s Cycling Services coming on board as a sponsor. But here's the twist... it took me a full week to actually ride the thing! In this episode of Bootleg Miles, I walk you through the process of modding and customizing my new gravel race bike — and why dialing in a ride when you're 6'4" is no small feat. From chain waxing to bar swaps to internal brake routing, this was more than a quick tune-up.

This pod isn’t just about building bikes — it’s about why the process matters. I share how wrenching helps my mental health, how I taught myself bike mechanics out of necessity, and how I finally brought White Lightning 2.0 to life. We also talk Silca sealant, tubeless setups, and why this is the nicest bike I’ve ever owned. If you’re a gear nerd, love behind-the-scenes storytelling, or just want to see how this bike came together before Badlands Gravel Battle, you’re in the right place.
