My new Kilo White Trash [WT]
I am setting up as a commuter/townie. Adding: flat bar, cross top levers & grips. wald front basket freewheel 19T new chain I need a new chain and a half link. the track bolts are at the limit of the rear and it looks stupid and dangerous. Due to the size of the tires I have to back the wheels out a bit and I need a half link to make it work properly. http://www.pedalroom.com/p/mercier-k...wt-26755_4.jpg http://www.pedalroom.com/p/mercier-k...wt-26755_3.jpg http://www.pedalroom.com/p/mercier-k...wt-26755_1.jpg http://www.pedalroom.com/p/mercier-k...wt-26755_2.jpg |

How do you like the WT? I'm considering this for my first fixed gear.
I made it a bike for me to lock up and cruise around when I'm not on my road bike. http://www.pedalroom.com/p/mercier-k...wt-26755_5.jpg |

So, longtime lurker finally joining the fun. Here is me with my baby. Gunnar Grand Tour - Custom singlespeed - horizontal dropouts 42x16: white industries drivetrain/freewheel/bottom bracket surly hubs : DT swiss rims Paul touring cantis etc... More pictures on my wife's blog (although she rides a geared bike ;)) https://rebaontour.wordpress.com http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=500739 |
How long are typical tour rides for you? Isn't it a bit rough ss for long distance? Nice bike tho, the crank is incredible.

Do you have issues with false neutrals with that hub? My friend has one, and we struggle to keep it from falling into neutral when shifting. Which is great when you get it out of neutral and the pedals start flying again....
SA was nice enough to send me an entire internal cartridge and shifter for free. he said that some of the older shifters werent indexed 100% correct which could cause shfiting problems, though i never had a problem with it |

I wish they had that on some roads near me. |

Civia Emerson. Don't know if they still make them. A basic compact drop bar, but one of the few in silver.
