Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Just bought a pair of tubular wheels with Dura Ace EX 7-speed Uniglide rear hub and Dura Ace EX front hub laced to Matrix tubular rims with new Vittoria Competition Rally tires (with Kevlar) yesterday. They're now on my Columbus SL MIELE with the reast of the components non-index N600 including the pedals with toe-clips.

Cheers from Miele Man

for $35 shipped i got a cinelli unicanitor mod.75 (tour de france), the #3 version, which is padded and covered in buffalo leather. has "CINELLI" in white letters on the back. impulse buy, but i'll probably like it better than my microtex selle royal contour, which is an o.k. saddle but im not super impressed with it

I just bought a Dura-Ace 9 speed Triple Front Derailleur for my touring bike. Also planning on getting Thomson X4 stem and an Elite seatpost (yes I am aware the M.Piece is lighter but I am a fat ass and this is going on a touring bike) and most likely the Zipp Service Course SL-70 Ergo bars to add the comfort and weight reduction I am looking for. I am probably also getting rid of my Surly Nice rack and replacing it with a much lighter Tubus Cargo rack and then adding the Duo I have always wanted at the front. Cutting weight and add cool shiz...yeah!

Couldn't resist the copper.

Hey wassup guys,
I just picked up these Carbon Look Drops from a buddy who only used them for 1 ride. They were not wide enough for him. These bars so far, feel great and getting into the drops feels A LOT more comfortable than my previous Deda Pista Drops.

One of these from The Scrod. Sugino 75 track crankset | Retrogression I'm 5'5" and have always used 170 cranks on my road bikes. I've been riding 170 on my Wabi-I ride it on the road not tack. I've done 4 centuries. Three without issues but back of a knee really sore from one I did Sunday. No serious damage but I think my hip angle is too much at the top of the stroke. Did 27060 revolutions Sunday and paid the price. Hence the 165 cranks.

How many times did you lose count during that though?

I bought a crappy black joytech rear fixed/fixed 36h high flange hub. Never built a wheel before, but I'm excited to try

The bearings in my rear Joytech hub lasted just a couple of months. The front hub has held up fine. As to the RPM count-got to think of something sitting on the bike forever.

I have been riding the RB-001 bulls for the past few months and really enjoy 'em. Any thoughts on what you are going to wrap them with?

Yeah I haven't heard many complaints about the bars. Except from people who like a bigger drop. And I just bought a pair of Lizard Skins DSP 2.5 Bar Tape. Excited to try it out, some love it and some hate it so we'll see. What are your 001's wrapped in?

I wrapped them with black cloth which has been nice. My wrap is a generic brand but Newbaums offers an almost identical product.
