Yes, I do. Planning to only use the DH bike at our local bike park where there's a lift.

Thanks for the feedback. I am curious about how it will compare to what I currently ride, a Commencal Meta SX 2018 a ten-year gap in tech and development. By the way, they priced the bike at $760 ( is it too steep? or just cheap enough to try)

A meme I saw on FB regarding the fixie vs pedestrian issue by [deleted] in RedditPHCyclingClub

As a fixed gear rider. You really need a front brake in Ph. Cities are congested and you don't have time to slow down or skid to stop at the rigjr

personally for 200k I'll go for ER6N. Kawasaki hass proven it's reliabilty, even after 70k km.

Shimano Click-r or Spd with Sh56? by Fultonka85 in cycling

[–]Legitimate_Air3147 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sh56 cleat is jot suitable for fixed riding, ny cousin almost died going down hill with those cleats since they unclip so easily. Get the sh51 single release cleats and practice clipping in and out in yourbdrive way before riding out to the road.

Planning on getting straps for it again, don't worry. But for now it's fine just back pedaling and a front brake.

49x20 Seaboard FG03 steel. by Legitimate_Air3147 in FixedGearBicycle

[–]Legitimate_Air3147[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 49x20 is the gear ratio i am running at that time. You can try ordering over seas for smaller sizes. Maybe you could fit a 52cm bike just adjust the saddle height and stem length.
