so strange... but so awesome! how is the Rolls? I'm thinking of getting one. I've heard that it's kind of soft and very comfy

now, finally, someone is thinking what i'm thinking! this setup is STRANGE, right? :-/ but as strange as it may look, it's so beautiful at the same time. and the feel of the ride... man... if only i can describe it in words... it's so comfortable yet so aggressive! San Marco Rolls beats every leather saddle in the market, IMHO. i can ride it for almost 2 hours without getting that numbness on my pelvis :p but, a friend said to me, if it's often got exposed in the sunshine and get wet in the rain, it'll ruin the ride comfort. btw, thanks for the compliment :) *high five*

Finally, my front wheel is ready to go. but the sad thing is, i have to change my rear rim for a while until i have chub track rear 24h

650c is sketchy, run a 700c. its better for you, you are more likely to hit the ground with a 650c and its just ugly looking, no offense.

hi :D thx for the critique. but i find it more fun to ride this frame with front 650c. i have more control compared to when i used front 700c. btw, i'm thinking about using rear disc wheel with front 24"x0.9 :D that'll be sick!

Yeah bro, just that i heard that it lowers your bottom bracket and stuff. haha disc and 650 is rad bro

yes, it does lowered my bottom bracket. but, as i studied it with fellow riders, the BB center has come to it's original place.
well, my frame is an old school TT frame. so its original setup (maybe) using 700-650. because as you can see my top tube is level now. but not on my previous setup, which i'm using both 700
and the feel of the ride... man... using a 650 front makes me more aggressive.
if only i have the money to buy 650 hed3 or spinergy rev-x :p

Damn dude, where did you get that back wheel?
Posted almost 13 years ago
i got that from a friend. he needs money fast. so i pay around US$95 for the rim only. when i laced it with my chub hub... hhh... she's a beauty, isn't she? :D

Dude, she's gorgeous! Like, I'm so jealous of it! Hahaha, it looks amazing dude! :]
Posted almost 13 years ago
she's gorgeous. but as all the gorgeous things in the world e.g Girls. LoL. the rim has 24h and my chub has 32h. for that reason, my rear wheel needs truing every 2-3 weeks.
but, it is worth it :D
