Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

A fixed gear conversion

I took my fixed gear and converted it.











Sorry about the kludgy front derailleur shims. I'll be picking up a new one very soon. Also, thanks everyone for the advice on a wheel set. Loving my Fulcrums!

nice work.

btw, the silver bartape looks terrible. I would put on red. or white. or black.

and why does the crank look black in the box but its silver on the bike?
