Nice wheelset ! Just discovered your apparel and bought myself a crewneck, great design.
How are the Time clipless for brakeless ? Do they hold up well ? Thought of getting some as the cleats are more discreet than spd

Posted over 10 years ago

chewypurple

chewypurple says:

Nice man! Thanks for supporting.

Regarding the Time pedals, they've held up really well. I put roughly 1000 miles on them and they're still good. Even took a few spills. lol.

They're super durable and fairly lightweight. And to your point, the cleat is more streamlined than an SPD. You do however get better leverage and less float on the SPD...so there's a tradeoff there. Good luck man

How's the 3t Ergosum compared to your previous Nitto track drops? I'm planning on changing my track drops to a compact road dropbar but I'm not sure if it will be better on climbs and sprints.

Posted over 10 years ago

chewypurple

chewypurple says:

I love the Ergosum man. Much better for the type of riding i'm doing (long distance / high endurance riding). Climbing is great, I just jump in the hoods and beast up hills. Plenty of hand positions and a comfortable drop to be in that position for 50+ miles.

Not sure the type of riding you're into, but its great for that. Good luck man.

So dope ! how do you like the omniums vs the grand mighty ?

Posted almost 11 years ago

chewypurple

chewypurple says:

Thanks! I thought i'd try out an external BB. I like them so far. Stiff and the arm length is slightly longer than the grand mighty's - better for climbing. However, grand mighty with a Phil Wood BB is way smoother imo.

jimbrown says:

Nice build! Quick question if you don't mind please - How tall are you, what's your inseam and how do you find your position with the 100m Thomson stem? Do you think you should of gotten longer or shorter stem?

Posted almost 11 years ago

jimbrown

jimbrown says:

Also, do you have any inclination on the stem? It doesn't look like it from what I can see.

Posted almost 11 years ago

chewypurple

chewypurple says:

Inseam is 29. It took me a while to figure out a comfortable setup since the top tube is short and the drops are shallow. I like the stem length currently. But obviously everyone's different. I'd say try out different setups and components.

Hey there you got nice build.. just ordered a low pursuit bike 53 cm.. as what mr. Low recommended for my 5'7 height and 31 inseam. Would that be too big for me? Coz ive never tried a low pursuit frame before. Pls fill me in thanks

Posted over 11 years ago

chewypurple

chewypurple says:

You're inseam is more than me. I'm a 29. The geo is tight on these - the top tube is short too. I wanted to go with the 50 but he talked me into the 52. It fits perfect. Listen to Andrew..he won't steer you wrong man.

vikkyvee

vikkyvee says:

Chey, do you still have your LOW//?

I ordered one several months back and now I am questioning the size? I am guessing we are about the same average height/inseam- 5'9, 30in. Currently I am riding a Bianchi Pista, 53. I feel like I could go a size larger on my next bike so I have ordered the 54 LOW?? Pursuit. I'm not sure how that compares. Got any insight on this? Thanks in advance

Posted about 12 years ago

chewypurple

chewypurple says:

Sup man. We're the same height and inseam. I ride a 51cm bianchi pista and Andrew Low recommended the 52cm Pursuit. I actually wanted to go a size smaller...but he talked me out of it. He was right, the 52cm fits really nice. Its perfect. The 54cm would be too big for you.

love the LOW, just wish they'd paint and brand those forks to match their frames better

Posted over 12 years ago

chewypurple

chewypurple says:

Yea, I completely agree. Since these are handmade, you could request to have the fork painted. Its carbon-alu so not sure how the powdercoat process works with it...but in theory you could. Might cost extra tho. But i dig the rake; the fork works really well with this frame.

hey man, this is a very nice build. :]

im actually thinking of getting one of these myself, but it looks like theres some really bad toe over lap on it. is there? and if there is, have you noticed it while youre riding?

Posted over 12 years ago

chewypurple

chewypurple says:

There is more toe overlap than both my super pista and njs level. Its pretty major but you get used to it. You really just notice it on sharp turns and learn to time your pedals. If you don't like too much overlap...I know Andrew Low is testing out some standard track geometries...so maybe hit him up.

Awesome! I've always liked those frames since I first saw them. How's it compare to the Super Pista?

Posted almost 13 years ago

chewypurple

chewypurple says:

It definitely rides different than the pista. Its lighter and stiffer all around. The sloping top tube makes it ride way more aggressive and responsive. It also accelerates faster. The bottom bracket is higher too. I love it. Its basically more 'super' than the super pista. :)

Cycleangelo is gonna take some shots of this thing later in the week. Should have better photos up soon!

You all healed up?
