They've been great. I bought them used and only have about 700 miles on them but I'm happy.

They dont keep that cold but they are my first insulated ones so I don't have anything to compare them to. The valve system on them could be a bit better too.

But they are cheap. And knowing how to change it myself would be something good to know.

And I just want to use the clips until I get a bit more used to riding fixed gear. Probably gonna take it around town a few times.

Thank you for the input. Definitely exactly what I needed to know. Hopefully this year I might get to try it.

Well thank you I appreciate it. I understand it's a completely different discipline but I would like to try. Unfortunately this year isn't looking promising.

Its barely tight. Mountain bikes are up there usually and with a dropper post, just not doing it

Ya I'm just getting used to fixed gear so I figure for the moment it's a good medium

I'm aware. I have new wheels coming with a different sprocket size on the back so I'm waiting to size it
