I have no idea, man. The Gopro comes with a bunch of different mounts, right? Or is it a separate kit?

Wrong thread?

No idea, I believe so.

That seals it. I won't even look at them again so as to avoid temptation.

Hi Infidels,

Asking my question here because I noticed Scrod you have a 722ts.

My LBS has recommended a 61cm Leader 722ts Heritage.

I've done the sizing calculator and it's saying the "French" fit recommends about a 61cm, and the "Eddie" fit about a 59cm.

I'm 6'2" and about 175lbs.

Are there any benefits to going for the smaller 59cm frame (aside from weight) even though my sizing results are showing I'm closer to a 61cm? Detriments (back pain etc)?

I'm coming from a bmx background so a smaller frame seems a bit more intuitive to me in terms of maneuverability and control. Maybe I'm wrong about that and I should stick to the larger frame when it comes to FGSS. I will use this for city commuting and fun rides, with the occasional long-range trips.

I know you can't really recommend a frame size for me over the net, this is more of a general question on whether someone should go up or down a frame size when they are sized close to each and the considerations for each.

Thanks.

I'm 5'10" and ride a 58cm 722TS. That's as big as the Heritage Edition comes so you will most likely need to look elsewhere.

I typically like a bigger frame because I have long arms. What you choose depends on your proportions.

58cm!?

Curses.

It's my (notscrod) understanding that if you absolutely must choose between two sizes, going with the smaller size would be better, but it's like choosing the lesser of two evils. Easier to make a smaller bike big, than a bigger bike small.

Also, frame size is crucial, but can't you fidget with stem length and saddle height/fore-aft position to make it work?

Egad.

I'm 6'2 with a 35" inseam and ride a 58cm 722ts (last year's) and it fits well. As Scrod said, depending on your proportions a 58cm may work for you too.

That's encouraging to know. Just waiting for the bike shop to get the frames in...

I'm very new to this I bought a new fixie its a Vilano with stock everything, I want to spend all of the money on everything else except the frame itself. I just don't know what is quality and what is bs. I know that I definitely need new pedals, a saddle, wheels, and tires. The rest I can live with for now. What is a good way to learn about the different brands and mfgs without actually purchasing them?

The search function.

Why do you say you need new wheels? Everything else you are pretty right about.

HELLA DOPE HIPSTER SKIDS, fur sure

Here's a question for you:

Will new wheels somehow make you skid better?

Weight of the Leader S805 fork?

Hey scrod?

i own a gopro, and i mainly use my chest mount and roll bar mount(both are sold seperatly) I prefer the roll bar mount over the dedicated handlebar mount b/c it has a rubber part in the clamp to prevent scratching, also its larger, and allows for pretty much clamping on anything round(stem/bars/downtube/toptube/seatpost/etc.). I think gopro also sells a helmet strap mount(similar to how you mount a helmet light), and i have yet to add that to the kit.If you don't plan on breaking your helmet anytime soon, you can stick one of the 3M sticky mounts onto your helmet of choice.

Does anyone make bars similar to those?

They look like old school time trialing bars.

/notscrod

That's a given .............

old school as in I doubt they are still made....................................................................

Those are 3t Moser Bars or the 51.151 bars. Expensive and rare, last pair I've seen sold on eBay for @$170. I'm unaware of any new production versions.

Best alternative is chop/flop track bars or certain road bars.
