I recently made a promise to myself to try and ride and possible race this spring/summer. Probably race at kissena and the thursday night races at prospect park. I was planning on buying a new bike but really didnt have the cash to. so instead i bought a new wheelset from nashbar. I was all excited about my new purchase until today. My fiance remebered me mentioning the deal at chucksbikes.com and this was waiting for me when i got home. well it was in the box but you all get the idea It was pretty much assembled except for the stem and seatpost. Miche hubs, sugino 75 49 tooth crank with a 15 miche cog in the rear. I will probably put some nitto bars on and see how that feels.

You are a lucky lucky man. Ride it in good health.

oooh, very nice. i'm a fan of the Fujis.

Sounds like you've got a keeper there. And I'm not talking about the bike

Congrats on the new bike and the awesome fiance.

seriously...the bike is nice...the woman is amazing

my girlfriend hates dogs, snow, and bikes......im going crazy

i don't think i could date a guy who didn't like bikes. i'm finding it hard to date guys who don't RIDE bikes, let alone not like them.

yo bro, can i take a ride? (if you're from brooklyn, you know what i mean)

^ That made me laugh.

good one.

looks great. I've got an '04 track pro and I dig it. Another buddy of mine also got one from Chucks on that deal.

That's a great deal. I was tempted to buy it for the drivetrain, and selling the rest of the components. If I had the capitall it woulda been a good deal on a Miche track group.

Oh yeah, and great fiance as well. Color me green.

haha, **** yes. one of the several reasons that my ex and i broke up is that she got pissed about me being so into bikes and i couldn't stand that she didn't like to ride much. alas. never again!

I've seen your 04 on fixedgeargallery. How is it riding in the streets? I noticed that the downtube seems kinda thin.

I've used the bike for the track more than the street... its a pretty darn stiff frame. The orig Ritchey stem was very flexy. The tubes are 'drawn' so yes they are pretty thin... I wouldn't toss a heavy lock and chain on there. its a really tight bike. I like that wheelset too and since using the Miche carrier/cog thing (which I like a real lot) I've put it on a couple other wheelsets.

That was really nice of your fiancee. Are you going to save this for the track or ride it on the streets too?

yea...really


I look forward to seeing/ riding along side that in prospect park sometime in the future

at least for as long as I can keep up with you and that thing

Classy move, man.

PS. No, really. It was good to see that. Sorry I added fuel to the fire in that other thread.

I think this bike will see more track miles than street but if your in the park I'm the slow asian guy riding the blue fixie.

good one man. that's nice to hear

i know what you're talking about...

now, i'm the happiest mother ****er you'll ever meet. having a girl who rides (and who's faster than me any day) is the best. the ****ing best.


edit; nice bike, Brooklyn! that's a nice damn gift.

Nice bike Brooklyn. Is yours the 54? If so could you do me a favour and post the top tube length?
I have been googleing for frame specs and have come up empty.

Did you try Fuji's website??

btw, tt for a 54 is 55cm.

Ha. I guess I did not think to look on their ROAD pages for their TRACK specs. Thanks.

so what did you get her? you better get shopping!
