I think the silly idea that fg bikes have to be set up "track" to ride on the road is responsible for most of the atrocious conversions and resulting anti conversion sentiment i see on the intertubes. When you convert a nice road frame there's no need to tart it up as something it's not, as if you're ashamed of it. Conversion doesn't have to be a dishonour that only junky bikes deserve. Anyway this is obviously a pet issue of mine and i've yammered about it enough, i will stfu now.
