Fuji:
Repaint all black frame sections red. Put a big TWIX sticker on downtube Love the Ourys. My fav grips for flats/risers |
You're all going to hate me, but I got this EG Bates yesterday for around $300. Campy Record high flange hubs, 531, engraved seat stays, Mavic GP4 Rims, Cinelli Pista bars. I so want to keep it, but I can turn such a profit on it that I can afford to finish my street fix conversion, buy a cheap track bike, get the work done on my roadie that I need, and STILL put money away...

Damn right I am. I love it, but I want something I can ride on the track, AND the money!

I ride very hilly and rocky terrain so I thought it would help, but I'm going to switch back to 16t becuase I just feel I can't carry my momentum as well with an 18t cog.
Sure, it looks like a clown bike with the blue tires, but they were uber cheap. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...ooby/gfblu.jpg How steep can you climb with your corrent drive train? |
A 5 Hour Fixed Gear Convertion...
Bought this clunker at a garage sale for $15....new paint and polished chrome...makes a nice fixed commuter.

It seems as if you've gotten many new bikes recently, since selling the DeBernardi to Earl. I want to see them all! |

The first thing I do when I get a bike is post a pic on bike forums.
just kidding, Pistas are a good ride. I still miss my '03. |

edit sorry missed "security chain". Will it work? longer to cut through the 2 metal rings attaching it to the frame. Or, they would need a chainbreaker tool as well as an allen wrench. basically, just trying to keep honest people honest. plus i think it looks neat. |
