hey man I love how you had this thing set up. One question I have - did you use track hubs on those wheels? Was it a flip-flop hub with a freewheel?
Posted about 11 years ago
Thanks a lot. Yea I use Pistard's, the hub allows you to use a freewheel on it. It's 120 spaced so you can use any track wheel set.

Awesome bike and great pics!
I was contemplating building a Mash CX but ended up with a road bike instead. This may be my next project though.

Thanks a lot. Its a great ride. A road bike over it wasn't a bad choice.

like the build
how does it feel to be ridding single speed off road been thinking of going and getting a cycle cross for a while now

Thank you,
It's actually a lot more fun than riding through the streets all the time. The different terrain really test out your bike handling skills. I suggest giving it a shot.

such a clean build. Minus those Miche wheels you could easily have this bike under 17.5 lbs

Thanks! I agree with you with the wheels. But couldn't pass on the deal for them. I'll eventually build a wider box sectional rim.

absolutely perfect build! Are you riding fixed?
Posted over 11 years ago
Thank you! Riding it single speed. Riding fixed cyclocross doesn't make any sense.

nah was just wondering cause I fassumed the pistards to be a FG/Track wheelset without machined sidewalls..

Oh okay. The wheels can be used as a single speed. The hub proudly accepts freewheels. The black iodizing just takes some time to come off.
