Thinking about getting rid of my commuter track bike for a CX bike (that would double as a winter bike), was looking into the Crosscheck but only found setups with either a massive stack of spacers or build up as a tourer. Love how it looks with a carbon fork and EDGE stem.

That's an absurd chainring for 35c tires!
Still one of my favorite bikes here!

sweet cross. do you use it offroad?

Yeah hard pack dirt and a little mud now and then. Mostly just bunny hopping stuff on the way to work.

That looks like a whole lot of fun! How are the skinnier B43s handling the larger tires?

I like this a lot! I have a langster pro but am contemplating selling it and doing a SS rig of some sort. Need to have less stress on the knees. How do you like it? I thought about doing an SS rig with a BMW Gangsta track. Thoughts?

Thanks! I like SS a lot for off road. Less chain slap etc. and you can jump the crap out of it!! A little bland on the streets though w/ such light gearing (36x16)

Ive recently gotten back into road and I LOVE how it feels. No stress on the knees and I feel ive ridden fixed long enough to appreciate it to not ride it anymore. How much was your set up?
Posted over 11 years ago
I feel the same way about fixed...4 years on the street was enough! haha Its hard to say what she cost because I work at a shop and got a lot of parts cheaply. Frame fork ~$200, wheels were given to me. Everything else was ordered at cost through work. Probably a sub $500 bike.

Can you go any bigger than a 2.1"? I have some mtb tires lying around that I think might be 2.2's, I'd like to see if they'll fit.
