bully

 

Check out my first fixed gear let me know what you think.........
It's a 2007 58cm Fuji Track with Tranz-X Bullhorns, Nitto pearl stem and 65 seatpost, and brooks b17 saddle.

 

is it just me or is that stem a little bit high?! check to make sure its not above the line

 

Two of my friends might be picking up Windsors within the next few weeks (or whenever they come in). They were originally going to build conversions, but the price is damn hard to beat. So now I won't have to ride alone anymore haha.

 

So, I thought this video was pretty cool. I hope it hasn't already been posted.

can anyone recommend a decent track crank/ring combo for less than $150?

i've had my heart set on a set of sugino 75's, but haven't really had decent luck finding a set that's reasonably cheap.

here you go,
http://keirinculture.com/store...61512

you can get the Kazane crank/ring/bb for $125, only have green and purple now. the other colors will be available in 3 weeks or less. if you really need them quick pm me and i can get them aired out to you in a week or so.

or you could drop $160 for the dura ace arms. no ring with those though

 

i bought my used sugino 75s + 48t ring on ebay for 150$ shipped. and they weren't mangled at all... sometimes all u need is patience!

i sold my used 7600 cranks for 215 w/out ring

considering i paid 215$ shipped for those cranks, 4 dura ace rings, custom nuevos, kashimax straps, mks clips ... i think i did ok

 

its inflation i tell ya... haha

 

damn the economy!

I guess its all about balance....

 

you need to have a little bit of speed. if you're going too slow it's a little harder... that's what i've noticed.

my biggest fear is being clipped in the bike falling backwards. memories from my younger years. lol

 

clipped in is aite, u just have to remember to pull out in time.
