Post up surly steamrollers plz
Mine is just sitting in pieces at the moment as I wait for the rest of my parts to come, so far I have the new maroon frame with miche primato cranks and bb, my old weinmann lp18/formula wheelset, old sella concor sattle, profile bullhorns. Im looking for some inspiration and just need something to stair instead of my half completed bike.
|
where did you get yours? I ordered mien from jensonusa about a month ago, and it should come soon.
|
I got mine from bikeswarehouse, it got here pretty quick , sooner than I thought it would. Its definitly gonna be my favorite bike, getting ridden everyday.
|
awesome. just saw the price for $566.09. will call jensonusa tomorrow to ask for a price match (was expecting to pay $630..)
|
I take it you mean a complete bike? I just bought the frame as I was gonna do a custom build and wanted to splurge a little bit cuz I like new shiny thingsssss.
|
I found my almost new brown Steamroller frame on Ebay in 2003.
|
I called Jensonusa this week and was told to expect their next shipment in early november. I put my name on the wait list.... but don't know if I'll hold out that long for one. Still contemplating the Barenuckle.
but if I do go with jenson, it's nice to know what others are paying because they price match. |
here is a terrible pic, but the only one i have at work. I had some profile bullhorns on it, but they were too wide. wanted to try something dif. I have some mavic cxp 22 rims. sugino 75 bb, but i ran out of money and just put on my old shimano 600 cranks. and a EAI superstar cog (:D)

I'm almost done with my 53cm build up, just gotta swap out the cog on the wheels ( 3/32 to a 1/8th). So far it's weinmann lp18/formula wheels ( soon to be upgraded), miche primato track cranks/bb, mks track pedals , profile horns etc etc.....

hot.. that's lookin real good.. quick question, how is your chainline w/ the crank/bb? i heard the surly rear hub is spec'd for 42.5-43.5 chainline instead, though the difference is probably minimal
edit: you probably wouldn't know b/c you dont have a chain on it. oops hah |
haha i read that wrong at first, Yeah i dont know yet, I think it should be pretty straight just by eyeing it up, I'll post up tomorrow when I throw the surly cog and my chain on.

Need to take it for a ride and get some nice photos sometime. Build is stock from Surly though I've replaced the bars with some home chopped bullhorns, new Brooks B17, Deep V rear rim ('cause I irrepairably busted the original Alexa on my first ride) and a pair of EggBeater C's. Plan on removing the all decals on the rims, fork and frame except for the "Surly" and "Steamroller" ones on the frame (when I get the time). The photo of the whole bike just looks wrong... must be the perspective. The saddle angle and the bars angle aren't really that steep in reality. |
