Current Stage Info:
With the frame still sitting around my house and having enough parts to build it up, it was time to put it back in service. It works great for grabbing lunch or running to the store.

I bet you have a lot of fun riding fixed in dirt ;)

Definitely do! Being able to just turn off a road and explore a trail allows for so much more riding opportunities. Debating about changing it up again, this time with a front disc brake.

Wow. So nice.

Thanks. I do reminisce on this setup, however if I returned to this, I'd miss the current setup more.

This looks fun with the new tires.
Any issues with hitting the bag, with your legs?

The wider tires and risers have definitely created the opportunity for so much more fun. I'm glad I changed it up; I love me some off-road cycling. =]
As far as the pack goes, it really depends on how much I stuff into it. Usually a bag of granola and tools keeps it fairly streamline to the frame, but any more and it could start to rub. It's not a huge annoyance though since I have super long femurs that extend beyond the pack. I just have to tuck the zipper under the frame otherwise it will flap in the wind.

why is there a bag? especially that corner looking thing.

I moved the bandana forward on the top tube to protect from bar swing. The frame pack is for carrying tools/snack. Just rode it 55 miles today on it along unused train rails converted into limestone trails (Wiouwash and Friendship Trails).

Why is there a bandana on the top tube?

It hides a brake cable guide, haha! It also gives a bit of padding for when I carry my bike on my shoulder.

how do you like that fyxation saddle?
Posted almost 12 years ago
I wouldn't say it's much of a comfort saddle, but I don't really ride leisurely on this bike and am putting much of my weight into the crank arms. I wanted an inexpensive, sporty saddle and the Pilot fit the bill. It was one of the few saddles that appealed to me that the vendor I purchased the crankset from offered. Seems to be of good quality for the price.
