Thanks man! I actually saw your bike on here last year and all of your setups reinforced my plans to go with the Steamroller as my platform. Thanks for the inspiration!

Glad I could help :) Is your rear brake at the absolute minimum of adjustment with the wheel that far back in the droupout?
Posted over 8 years ago
Front and Rear are both at their minimum, actually. It's obviously not ideal but the angle is good and they honestly work great. With a little toe in, no squeal and plenty of power. I went with the Racers because Paul and I wanted maximum clearance for tires/fenders/both if I wanted.

Thanks! I just asked because I wanted to upgrade eventually and was was trying to figure out if the Racer or Racer M was a the better choice. My Dia-Compe's work great but I'm sure the action is nicer with the Paul's.

The action is great. You'll love them. I investigated for a while before I pulled the trigger on the. As I'm sure you've found, there aren't many photos of Steamrollers out there with them on.

What size fenders are those? I'm thinking of getting some Velo Orange guys, but not sure whether to go with the 45mm or the 52mm.
Those 35mm tires seem to fit pretty tight and look just right. Could you go any larger?

BassoBry says:
They are the VO 45s. They fit well. I wouldn't go any bigger than these tires though. Tightest part is around the rear brake bridge. Typically want to give yourself a 10mm buffer. So 35mm tires -->45mm fenders.
