Great conversion. The clean, uncluttered lines of the bike look awesome. How's she ride?

Re: My new SS conversion rocks!!
Thank you! It rides really well......as it was my primary geared road bike for over a dozen years.
In June I did a hilly double century (200mi) ride when I initially converted this bike into a fixed gear. The long descents were pure torture and the constant spinning downhill drove me nuts. After that ride I decided to install a freewheel cog on this bike and use it strictly as a singlespeed.  |
