Hey peeps,
I have just purchased a Condor Lavoro - well it is getting built atm.
Basically I am converting it into a bike I can use on the road and have had assurance from Condor that it will be suitable for road use - before you ask/tell me otherwise.
This is what set up will look like initially (photo attached):
Frame: Condor Lavoro handbuilt with Columbus 7005 triple butted aluminium tubing (heat treated)
Fork: Condor Carbon Track fork, superlight straight-blade track fork (35mm rake) to significantly improve control
Headset: Condor Integrated Alloy
Chainset: Condor Supremacy, one piece forged lightweight alloy
Bottom Bracket: Miche Primato, 107mm
Sprocket: Condor 1/8th track sprocket (available in sizes 14t to 18t)
Handlebars: Condor Strada Alloy - oversized (available in sizes 36cm to 44cm, size determined with bike fit)
Stem: Condor Strada Alloy - oversized (available in sizes 70mm to 130mm, size determined with bike fit)
Handlebar Tape: Condor Cork, black
Saddle: Fizik Ardea, with manganese rails, black
Seatpost: Condor Uno alloy
Seatclamp: Condor Uno alloy
Wheelset: Miche X-Press, medium profile alloy rim
Tyres: Vittoria Zaffiro, 700 x 23mm, black
Tubes: Specialized, 48mm valve
I would like some advise/guidance on changing the set up to make it more road worthy.
Also I want to ride single speed rather than fixed..
Any help would be appreciated.
