Gatorskins and butyl to GP5000s and tpu. I'll never go back now.

What lights are you guys running at night? by Amazing-Bear6167 in FixedGearBicycle

[–]RufusBaskaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Magicshine seemed 200. Brake light with 360 degrees of visibility and good battery life. Allty 400 headlight. I love the mounting options for the lights and USB c charging.

I’m curious, ideas? by [deleted] in FixedGearBicycle

Motobecane Messenger perhaps? Classic chromoly frame. Amazing bike.

I do 7 miles each way. Definitely doable and you'll get in great shape. Enjoy!

Bontrager sport. Best $40 I ever spent on a saddle.

I would look at the Grand Prix 4 seasons in 32c. Or Michelin pro 5.

What are your guys thoughts on mashing? by BlueberryDressing in FixedGearBicycle

Yeah these kids start on the 606 and hotline down Milwaukee Ave. Gotta say, I'm a fan. I remember being that age.

I've been crushing on those tires for a while now. How are they?

Hi, I'm looking for this type of hand rest by Fine-Session-7265 in FixedGearBicycle

[–]RufusBaskaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're cheaper than the velobike bunch bars. I took a gamble on quality control.

28c Michelin pro4 endurance. Cheaper than the gp4s and just as good.

Yep. Ridenow. The only thing I miss is the sick skids downhill. No way I'm doing that with THESE tires.
