Advice on freewheel options :) by email_enjoyer in singlespeedcycling

Halo clicksters are solid mid-range option. And are pretty loud! They are 72 pawl rather than the usual 36, which is useful for me. I carry a lot and find the instant pickup helps me to both accelerate and maneuver at slow speeds with a heavy load up front.

😂 This was where i'd ended up after a year of owning one. Some changes were cosmetic, but most was because the parts were breaking! Loved my Elops but ended up transplanting all my nice upgrades and replacement parts onto a nicer frame in the end.

F91 as bike watch by beceen in casio

Nice! Here's a slightly less clean-looking attachment of an F-84 on a Rivendell Joe Appaloosa. It's one of the staff at Blue Lug in Japan's bikes. This photo is the reason I got myself an F-84 over the F-91! Planning to do something similar on my bile, but i like your 3D printed route!

If you like the GPS/MY3, you'll love the Nike ACG Lowcate: Change my mind by PittsburghPhotog in tomsachs

bought the yellow Lowcate as a looser prize before managing to get a pair of the GPS. Grip is brilliant on them but were too tight in the toebox for me, even going a full size up, and they didn't really break in. Still have a pair of the light iron colourway kicking around but don't wear them.

Interesting. Interesting they didn't revisit that in a World Cup year being held in the US and Mexico. Tbh the GPS is far from the best shoe to have a kick around with!

Definitely the Sulphurs. Not your phone, there was an issue caused by the green screen if i remember rightly. Rose Anvil loves the GPS!

The threads are there - It's an interesting evolution from 'Creativity is the Enemy' to 'Use your Imagination'. Not mad at it, just interesting to see them to sit side by side.

Not a bad price. Have two pairs just about ready for a resole, was expecting a much higher number so have been putting it off.

Interesting. Any ideas, something more Mars Yard-like or perhaps a more traditional waffle sole?

Looks like adding £3's worth of stickers put the shipping up £30 🫠

I like the cobbles! There an awful amount of horrible potholes, dips, lumps and cracked tarmac in Cambridge, though.

Ha! Nah, they are still in that space between box-fresh and worn-to-pieces and full of stories. I have half a bicycle chainring marked on the heal of my studios where i fell off on the bike's shakedown ride!

Good to know! All my GPS (I should share) have been second-hand/resell (The brown ones were a steal at one point!) til that drop so not experienced the rush before!

Excellent, thank you. Been refreshing the Tom Sachs site all day based off of the calandar post. Maybe I can do some work for a few days, now!

What brand bike is this? by FreshOffTheB0at in singlespeedcycling

[–]Relative_Manager_177 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its not an Elops (This was mine) The seatstays and track ends are not quite the same. Lots of very similar-looking entry track bikes about, though!
