i ordered my fixie from se on friday. i should be here by tomorrow. i already got my cog to convert it to fixed. im just waiting on the bike. my plan is to slowly upgrade the parts and then finally get a soma delancey frame to have the bike i actually want. this one is just for me to get started. im so stoked!

I'm digging the color combo on that. Looks like a hard core dh Mavic setup, road style.

 

[lovebunny]

i cant wait to get it! i havent been this stoked about a bike in a long time

it's one of the reasons I got that bike plus that it was $320

I do like horns, in some respect, they're more comfortable than my roadie drops.

 

[lovebunny]

yeah the more i think about it i think im going to go with mustache bars. i cant wait! im way stoked for it. whats your gearing? im running 46 17

 

[LordOpie]

stick with the drops for a while and enjoy it, then when you do switch to bullhorns, it'll be like a new bike?

42-16

i struggled with the choice between bullhorns and drops. I finally decided on the drops because they seemed more ‘pracitcle.’ I have found though that since I am running lazy brakes and not hoods that the bullhorns would have been the better choice because the drops curve so steeply there’s nothing really to hold on out there and I don’t spend hardly anytime in the drops.
I’m going to look for some bull horns today.

 

[lovebunny]

yeah this is just my first one. so im gonna be slowly upgrading it. after i get all the parts i want to get a soma delancey frame and then ill have two!

 

[PatBranch]

I knew this would happen... I placed better than you at fontana, so you are converting to a fixie rider.

 

[lovebunny]

how can you place better than me when i wasnt racing?

 

[PatBranch]

That doesn't matter. I did better than your 5th!
