Damn, sorry I'm a little late with getting back with this but thanks to everyone who enjoyed my gooch! Esp to those of you who read the long winded story on my blog about how I found her. As for the Brooks, I've tried out other saddles but just haven't found one that I like better on there yet...
Also, br995 your Makino is wicked! |
Thanks guys. The wheels are heavy but only 8 grams heavier than Deep Vs. I'm running a higher gearing too so the effort needed to get them spinning is noticeable.
I bought the wheelset and an old pair of campy record track hubs from the (now ex-)manager of my shop for $250. He got fired later for stealing. Maybe that explains the price? Anyway, that's why I didn't build up the Suzue, DH. Bars will be wrapped and/or gripped at some point; need to figure out what color first. Rides nice, though it's a bit larger than my previous NJS frames so the handling is somewhat different. Edit: I should add that the top tube decal says "Takada Spcial". Don't know if maybe Takada was the racer's name? Either way their spelling could use some work. |
Some better non hallway pics of my new fixie:

If anything, the bike posted above it belongs in the jackass thread. I'm not going to nitpick though. I know we've all seen much worse. |

here is my first Fixed gear, and actually first road bike, I think this will be good training for DH season.
