I'd hate to see your track setup. Wrap the bars or get grips, do you not sweat or something?

i use my Zipp 999 for my track set-up. basically a 900 disc with an 808 front. pics later...

i just removed the grips. gonna wrap it before i go to the track. using gloves for street riding.

One of the nicer bikes posted lately:thumb:


you sir are a idiot.

Thank you, I needed that! :p

But you missed my point too. :D

I just thought it was approiate.

No harm intended:)

Mainly because I haven't ridden fixed before and I enjoy having a full set of teeth in my mouth and skin on my body.

cool, but why've you put them on backwards?

because when he spins the bars 180 degrees they will then be facing the right way.

surely that would mean they're just upside down and backwards, right? I dunno... maybe he took the photo in a mirror or something

it's for barspins.

as lame as it is, it's for barspins.

new wheels...bad pictarz

I heard rear Hed 3s are super flexy when you whip skid. Have you noticed that?

what handlebar is that? i'm looking for black track bars (deda's are 31.8 clamp)... looking for 25.4 or preferrably 26.

I would feel my front Tri Spoke flexing into the fender when I'd sprint up hills.

Some track racers complain that HED discs are way flexy, and discs are obviously way more solid than any Tri Spoke could ever be.

So yeah, I'd say they're not a very stiff wheel... the deflection tests on Sheldon confirm this.

just to ease your mind. nothing is as flexy as an A-spoke. Now that I'm riding on 36h wheels, I wouldn't ever think about going back to them now that they are sold. I seriously thought something was wrong with my bike when I put spoked wheels back on because they were so much more stiff and in turns it would turn on the dime

Hey, newbie first post, but I thought since I learnt heaps from reading these forums, I would post pics of my five month project. It's just a bit of fun, frame brand unknown the rest are bits from all over.
Hope you like.

Yeah I know, I rode a friends bike with full Aerospokes. I love the look of a rear Aerospoke (sans front) but I'd never own one.

Now remember all the justifications you were giving about A-spokes in the past?

yup I remember:o
I'll still say they are great training wheels and I really didn't mind the weight, but now that I fully understand how flexy they are, I can say a spoked wheel trumps it any day.

Lovely bike. Clean, simple and understated.

Nitto Tee19 and its a 25.4. there's also a Tee19 gruppo. i don't know where you can find one. it was given to me as a gift from Jovontae Turner (pro skater/MASH).
