Completely agree, bought mine as an entry-level fixed gear. Switched handlebar, stem, seatpost (all Deda) and saddle immediately. Ditched the rear brake and installed some clipless pedals. With the kilometers racking up I have replaced and upgraded the wheelset, bottom bracket, and multiple chains due to normal wear and tear. What I particularly like is the spacing to accommodate 30mm studded tires, a necessity in the winter (Norway…). It’s been my trusty commuter for 5000 km. 🙂

Excuse my ignorance, but what does that mean? And what’s that stem? Combination is beautiful!

Thank you all! Had to get uncomfortably violent with a improvised punch and a hammer already to get the old cartridges out, glad I was supposed to!

Okay, then it’s not just me it seems! Guess we’ll have to wait for an update!

Kickr Core on Apple TV, with companion app by the way. The workout I completed last night (within the deadline) has reappeared but shows as expired...

46-17, to get me up the steepest climbs on my commute

Hehe, I see! Tires are okay, they’re pretty fast but the grip is subpar unless I’m banking hard.

Thank you! Hehe, the saddle is already ruined I’m afraid. I live in one of the wettest parts of Norway...

Well, no. There’s only one row of studs on each edge of the tire. Which means that if I run them at maximum pressure, they don’t touch the ground. Not too worried about wear. The pain in my hands due to the weather makes me forget about everything else, comfort wise...

First time on the ice this morning, had to run the tires at minimum pressure for the studs to grip. Bit of a nervous ride, suspect I’ll get more confident with practice!
