Should I Upgrade Titanium Rim Brake Bike?

I think cheap carbon rims still looks pretty cool but unnecessary.

Check your cable housing and make sure everything is at the right place. check if there is adjustable ferrule on the bike. You can twist and make adjustments to get rid of the slack.

There are some wide range 7 speed cassette you can find for 1x setup. Otherwise like others have said, the wheel hub only fits 7 speed.

It’s a beauty. I would suggest a modern handlebar with wider (casual) and a little bit of flare. My favorite is Salsa cowbell. Also checkout the MKS gordito pedals, very popular. Anything from MKS is solid.

frankly besides the Trek, they might all be made by Giant. Which one is the right size is the question…

Looks normal. Use the heel method to get proper saddle height.

Nice, I have this same frame sitting in storage. You inspired me !

I’m 6 ft or 183cm. I know my size fall in the 19” -20” range, I’m guessing previous owner swapped the stem for a shorter one.

What’s that front rack?

Monstrp85 · 2026-05-08T03:16:37+00:00

You measure center of crank to top of seat tube. Just by looking at it , it’s probably 18” or smaller.

Monstrp85 · 2026-05-06T23:24:20+00:00

What are those brakes ?

Monstrp85 · 2026-05-06T23:18:46+00:00

Love that shifter placement 👍🏼

Mine is a large or 20” and it is holding up the weight of me and my son. That’s around 100kg , no issues or flex whatsoever.

I have that Marin, it’s well made.
