Thanks. I was having a hard time getting my hands on a Shimano Nexus 7-speed IGH, which is just about the only decent hub with a 130mm OLD to fit the dropouts in my Cassy. I almost ordered this KHS Green 8 Deluxe 8-speed through one of the local shops in my area.

Help in deciding crank size and teeth for single speed
what is a recommended crankset for a street and track fixe gear and also does it make any difference if its a high flange or low flange hubs? Thank you all.

Also, I don't agree that Road discs are in their infancy. Most of the tech transferred over directly from MTBs, no?

Hence why some of the nicer rotors have an awesome slotted machined design and calipers with heatspreaders. I.e. ice tech rotors and cooling fins.

Picked this up a couple weeks ago and finally dialed it in. It's an old Spooky Skeletor. Back up bike for the Stoemper.

I know dat feel on the paddywagon, if I ran a white saddle on it to match its tape it'd be a blue saddle now

^^^ Very nice Dan. You've got a winner there. I'm a big fan of dt shifters on vintage bikes, and didn't even start using brifters until 10 years ago.
