[Nic01101011]

Got one like this today, since I'm moving to one of the bike friendliest cities in the US(Davis, CA) in a couple months :)

Those are cool but save some money with something like these...

I want the carbon FSA's my friend Colin got not too long ago:



I want to get as much CF stuff as I can find, which will look sick since my bike is already a dark grey. I found a used CF fork at a local shop for $150, I'm trying real hard to convince myself to buys it.

You guys have me itching to build my singlespeed, a project that I was going to start this winter.

1. What are some good online stores for parts?
2. Any good recommendations for a STRONG set of cranks for my SS mountain bike?

DUDE !! I just sold a new set of those for buddy of mine not 3 months ago on ebay. They went for like $125-150 shipped IIRC

If anyone is interested, i have a NIB black Brooks saddle that i'm looking to sell. They retail for around 80 bones. I'm looking for $70 and i'll throw in the proofide which is a ~$15 value.

I have that seat, some hate it, i love it and cant ride one of those skinny boner seats like the windsor has.

Kevin, i am very happy you own a fixed. I know you make that shit so sick.

I HAVE to get a different seat. That thing is killing my gooch, and the 2 spots on my ass where it hits.

hey guys, my local bike shop says it cannot get fixed 26 inch wheels for my white specialized i posted earlier.

got any ideas where i can order some new wheels in 26 inch?

also, can most local bike shops re-spoke wheels? since my bike has horizontal drop outs, i want to get that offset hub that white industries is making, so i'd have to have the wheel rebuilt.

in my reading i've seen 700c used alot, and that it's smaller than 27 inches. what size in inches is it exactly?

thanks

I just got into cycling.... looking at a 'custom' single speed by IRO for commuting 30-40 miles round trip... just have to work my way up to that mileage. I might do horn brakes instead.... and probably all black wheels as well.

I started to get worried, then realized it was stickied. excellent work josh


Also guys, if you're selling bike parts, feel free to advertise. I would bike shit as often as I buy car shit! I think others feel the same.
