thanks man... yea, this was my street fixie. at one point it was the only bike i owned after i crashed my road bike, (thats the state with 2 brakes and freewheel) because my knee was really damaged after my crash so i couldnt skid.

Which headset was better for you: Can Creek or Chris King? I though about getting King, but then there's some big discussion about the Cane Creek 110.

You can never go wrong with a chirs king. I have never ridden with the cane creek 110, but I have heard good things about it :)

Wow IRO are rare, ive never seen anyone ride one here, in norcal.

Unclip says:

Yea, I guess they are rare. I mean, it's no Cervelo, but I love this bike. Thanks for the compliments. :)

nagillum says:

so you run 51:14 for a daliy ride? i guess no skidding, 95 gear inches must hurt the knees...haha

Posted about 12 years ago

Unclip

Unclip says:

It's actually 98 gear inches. And I don't have a problem skidding. Not to be cocky or anything. I have to agree that, it's a dumb ratio, but it makes flat rides/ downhill rides really enjoyable.

nagillum

nagillum says:

yeah its an odd ratio, to be riding... like on my schwinn i ride 48:17 which makes a good acceleration and for skid stops. i think if you put a 17t on the rear it be more reasonable...

Unclip says:

Yea, I currently have a 16t but haven't updated my bike lol.

Looking good. I think this might be a 59 tho not a 56. I had one and your ht looks longer.

Posted about 12 years ago

Unclip

Unclip says:

Its defiantly a 56. Its Jdawg4334s old bike. Ask him if you want.

Posted about 12 years ago

Unclip says:

and i know this because it does't fit me properly. all my other bikes are 58's and this is for sure smaller!

It wasn't. He gave it to me.

To borrow or to keep?

Posted about 12 years ago

Unclip

Unclip says:

Most likely to keep. He has his KHS. I will have to give it back when he gets his bike painted by Mike's Bikes. But other than that, its mine to keep.

Isn't it a little too small though?

Unclip says:

I actually just rode it, it feels good. Made some adjustments to the saddle high. Its not as bad as I thought it was going to be.
