he already said his bike is not his ideal set up, stock for the most part.
I'm not sure because the fuji is about as far from my ideal track bike as is possible while still being a functional track bike.

sloppy - dolfaces fuji is pretty sick...
I do think spdrs are the ideal track pedal and that saddle is also my favorite...
he already said that it's stock, save for a few parts he swapped out. this sort of struck me as odd. it appears as if he speaks from extensive experience, although i'm beginning to doubt that is the case. but then again, what do i know since i talk out of my ass.
dutret - i'd consider swap out those cranks as they have a tendency to strip. (mom joke omitted)

I said it to ML Project, and I'll say it again to you. I am surprised to see you starting this thread.
i'm not. dutret insulted his ride. this can mean only one thing....time for a RACE!
dutret - i'd consider swap out those cranks as they have a tendency to strip. (mom joke omitted)
The cranks are well on their way to stripping already. They do not deal well with standing starts. I have no money for a new crankset so I just tighten them with increasing frequency.
I have no mavic elipses nor have I ever claimed to.
It serves it purpose and I enjoy that purpose. The bike itself is pretty ehhh.

This wasn't a battle. More of a "show me your dick, since you keep bragging about how big it is".
After the Don Walker implants, eddie is forgiving, and just acknowledging the fact that "yes dutret, I too, once had a smallish dick".
It's all actually quite diplomatic.:)

You never had one this big before either! That's probably why your pedal broke -improper dick leverage.:D

the perfect bike, fuji....oxymoron?
i'm offering to photograph it using a fuji 6X9 camera, then process the film at a fuji 1hour lab, scan it on a fuji scanner, then make a fujix print.
you can take this much further.

what kind of saddle is that, and why do you love it so? just curious.
it's an older specialized bg. It just fits my ass nicely and has never given me any numbness or sores.
Fuji Track owners are happy :)
