Single Speed and Fixed Gear Marketplace - Retrogression

once again, i love you.

dont tell angie.

:love:

now do i buy the xr-200's in high spoke count or do i source some hubs? decisions!

We're still working on getting some hubs with lower spoke counts. Hopefully I'll be able to figure something out and will have them up on the site soon!

Those 32h KinLin build kits - as well as the rims sold separately in some lower spoke counts - are live on the store. We've added a couple of spoke upgrade options as well. Hopefully we'll get some lower spoke count hubs and have more complete kit options soon!

Not sure if it's mentioned earlier in the thread...do you build all the wheels yourself?

Somewhere down the line we will be offering wheel builds but these are just build kits - you get all the necessary parts to build them yourself.

Ah, gotcha. I totally misunderstood.

Awesome job on the build kits! I'm also happy too see the 725 available too.

Right on, man...thanks! Just got a few of these Alex G6000/Novatec wheelsets up there today too:

oh **** I didn't even notice you had 725s now. very cool

We do, with more stuff on the way!

I love the new I806A V2 fork! It wouldn't look super weird on a 721, would it?

Edit: is this the new slightly cheaper carbon fork we were talking about? The I806A is listed as being Aluminum.

Not at all. It's made for the Leader aluminum frames and has an oversized crown to match the head tube. You may want to wait a few more days though.......

I can definitely wait.

I spy with my little eye, leader gear!

Any love for the Leader Hubs?

Cyclones? Unfortunately, they look better than they are.

Dissapointing, but understandable... I do think they look quite lovely.

Actually, that's all just hearsay and I've yet to actually ride one. Even though they look really fancy, they're probably on par with typical Formulas and whatnot.

I should build up a set one of these days and see what they're all about.

Does 61cm just not sell? Notice nothing from leader has 61cm anymore :(

Eagerly awaiting new forks :D

Only the 722TS and 721TR are available in 61cm. Should we stock them?

YES! I will most likely be buying my 721 from Coghouse but I would be much more willing to give my cash to you.

Hang tight...the release of the 2011 721 is happening really soon.

Gotcha.

I personally don't need another frame but others might I dunno. I bought a 721 last year and really really like it. It just sucks that it looks like they are getting away from making any of their new frames in larger sizes. I see some of their old discontinued road/tri frames on ebay from time to time made in crazy ass sizes like 63 or 65cm. I honestly think I could go a larger than a 61 but definitely not down to a 58 w/o having a mile high seatpost.

They did away with the 49cm frames for 2011 too because they just weren't selling. It leaves a few people out but I can understand it from a business standpoint.

must... order... fork....

must... know... priiiice!

Leader I05TR carbon/aluminum fork available now!

that fork is so sexy. everytime I see them I kick myself for ordering a frame with a 1" headtube

Don't kick yourself too hard. Because of the oversized crown, it would look weird on a bike with a standard-sized head tube anyway.

Scrod, I would be interested in a 61cm 721 or 722

They're coming! Check in a few days.

That fr0k is cool. Would def. be all over if I didn't have this Fuji fr0k.

The I806-TR fork would look wonky with the 722ts? Maybe? I remember some guy here had a green 722ts with one.. Was thinking of maybe going that route in a year or two.

The carbon fork designed to be used with the 722 is the S805:

Besides, the I806TR is discontinued for 2011.

Hmmm interesting

why'd they discontinue the i806tr? i just put in the order for the i105tr and am psyched to have something for the ftp that is the proper rake. feeling seriously good.

I see someone is selling Omniums!

especially considering the competition just upped their prices... Looks like Retrogression's got them for the cheapest around.

Damn, the 165mm are gone already?

Holy crap, they are!

Gangster, dude. :lol:

Wth $65?? I was going to buy some from them before I learned about Scrod's stock. Good thing Scrod's got our back.

Gotta free up some cash, though.

Are the forks sold out already? lol

Was getting paid next friday and wanted to order one :(

No worries - more will be along very soon.

Gotta free up some cash, though.

You'd better hurry! :D

jeez I <3 the S803. damn 1 1/8"

Retrogression is quickly becoming my favorite bike store, and Scrod my favorite owner. Just hang out with me when you blow up :( and move to LA.
