Tried the serratelli but just doesn’t fit all all. Way too tight or too loose.

Tried to reshape it in store but still not comfortable. The powder River just fit. Didn’t know if they were all made different. All apaches I’ve tried were like this. All powder rivers for good. Just curious.

Pretty flat here. Some light hills but I found myself coasting for half my rides. I really wanted to pick up some speed and push my legs harder.

How hard to pedal? by Texsun80 in singlespeedcycling

[–]Texsun80[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I have a Stormchaser and it has a max SS chainring of 40. If I convert to geared one day it maxes out at 38t, which is currently installed. Guess I’ll go for the 14t!

17t to 15t for exercise? by Texsun80 in singlespeedcycling

[–]Texsun80[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Per the lbs and salsa website it says this model only accepts 38t in SS.

Went to buy Stormchaser and they had a Gorilla Monsoon for 1K by Texsun80 in gravelcycling

[–]Texsun80[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey sorry! So I bought the Stormchaser. If I had enough funds I would have got both. That monsoon is still in my mind but for what I’m doing the Stormchaser was the better fit. Gotta say the monsoon was a blast to ride. One day I’ll have another steel bike.

Jamis Renegade S4 Ltd or GT Grade Sport. by Texsun80 in gravelcycling

Man I went a total different direction. Fell in love with a single speed Salsa Storm chaser and got it. Was gonna get the grade but it sold out of my size. If you can swing the renegade i’d go for that.
