i may be wrong but isnt the tread direction backwards on the rear tire??
of cource a lovely bike 🙂
Well noticed man! Ha
Yeah it it’s. Its because I flipped the wheel around to use a smaller sprocket
🙂
I thort that was probably why,
hey rudy what ratio do you usualy use skidding,traffic ect..?i use 47×19 too light? but i can spin.
also have you covered the breaking serface on the hed clinch?
soz for the Q’s
you prob see me on the 26th.
sound! Arthur.
Man…Gear ratio is a personal thing I guess, if you think 47×19 is good for you, thats good enough. Then drop to a 18 sprocket to try it out.
We can talk gear ration on the 26th.
Hope you can make it dude.

hey Rudy,
What’ tyres used on this set up ?
What is your size Rudy? Im 186cm what you think 55 or 58cm frame?
which Hplus son rim?
@ Og, definitely a 58 or even 61 man, if they do it, your tall! I run vittoria randonneur on the rear and continental gatorskin on the front.
@ Danny – H Plus Son – Formation Face i think. the 42mm deep
how tall are you?? im 511 should i go for 53 or 55??
thanks rudy
55 for sure bro.
Hows that saddle? Im looking into getting one.
I dont seem to under stand cranks and BB for leaders :/whats the size of you’re bb? what should I get Sugino or SRAM Omnium?
Sugino and Sram Omnium are both great and compatible.
Sugino 75 with a good BB is better tho. The 725/735 model both take English BB 68mm.
Thanks Rudy, what crank would you prefer?
I mean BB?
Whats the size of youre crank arms ?
165mm
