My Redline 925


Just bought the Nitto B123 bars. Next up will most likely be a Brooks B17 in green, new wheelset/tires and cranks.

they are indeed road doubles. the bottom bracket spindle is quite short for doubles to get the chain line right with the outside position. as far as the tape, im just not a big fan of the overbadging, and it may afford me a bit more side visibility.

is that thomson a 26.8, or is it stuck in there framerape style? i really want a 26.8.
reflective and 26.8 they are.

sorry if this gets posted twice, but when i tried posting it a few minutes ago there was some weirdness and it showed up where the banner ad is at the top of the screen (???).

the seat is on loan from my other bike while i look for a new one that doesn't make me go numb.

New to the forums as I just got into biking again. Been using it for road cycling mostly but I like the fact you can mess around on fixies too just for fun. I like it as my first entry level bike and I plan to pick up a nicer frame when I am better. Bought it new a month ago but here it is after a month and most likely how it'll stay. I love how it always gets me out to ride now, biking is just fun.
