http://www.kineticshift.com/wp-conte...emCAPtain4.jpg im about to buy one.. lol, i like the compass one. |
i like knowing what time it is
|
but dood, you have a Garmin for that!
|
I wish the bezel was knurled, so you could still use it the way it was intended. I'm buying one though, that thing is awesome!
[EDIT]: Didn't realize that it was a functional top cap. Even better. |

its not priced too bad either... $25
|
That may be the only good feature.
|
i'd definitely get one if they were the same size as a normal top cap, but they're huge, and sit like half an inch above the stem.... ew.
|
curious how "functional" that thing is a top cap. I have an iphone dock that goes on my topcap and the longer screw they give me doesn't quite do the job it seems and I feel like there's a little play in my headset.
|
Have about $200 to spend on wheelset, was thinking Wabi Cycles GX410 Fixed Gear Wheelset, so should I? Want to get the best bang for a buck.
|
i wanna see one of those stem captains on a bike from a profile view. is the little half inch really that noticeable?

I need a new stem. I've got a 1" threaded headset. I love the classic look of quill stems, but the selection in quill stems is pretty poor, and most quality ones that I see are a polished silver/nickel color, whereas I was hoping to get a black one. Origin-8 makes one that I like the looks of, but I'm not sure about the quality. Profile design, which is slightly higher quality (I think) also makes one, but it's not as attractive to me. Then, there's the option of the adapter that will enable me to use threadless stems with my current fork/headset. The selection would be much better, but I'm not a fan of the looks of a threadless stem. So, should I:
1) get the origin-8 stem? 2) get the profile design stem? 3) accept that quill stems are the past, threadless stems are the present and future, and get the adapter? |

I want to build a new rear wheel that has both fixed/fixed so I can easily switch between cogs. The question is, do I get a Dura Ace hub or a phil hub? Im pretty sure you can buy a fixed/fixed from both.
Also, what rim should I get? I think I am off my Mavic CXP33 fix since I already have that set up as a track wheel. Was thinking Velocity Deep V or **********??? |
Open Pro!
|
Should I go for an Aliante Gamma (which has K:ium rails) or an Aliante Carbon? I'm pretty light (120 lbs) so I don't think I need to worry about the strength of the rails...

Does your wallet care?
