Hi,
My name is Sean, I live in Boston, and I love to ride. Ridden bikes all my life (I'm 27, so probably 20 years), but only in recent history (3 yrs) have I had my spiritual conversion to riding fixed. I just spent a couple of years in Athens GA doing a degree, and now I'm off to NYC for both a phD and the great biking culture there. Currently riding a fuji track of yesteryear, and currently building up an 80's fuji conversion.
If anyone out there has advice on frames, rims, and especially hubs, that would be great - I would love to hear what people think about the nuances between Phils, Suzue promax's, woodmans, zeus', and the like. Gonna knit them to deep v's regardless.
Thanks for being here.
