Rodolfo, thats a neat tip i will try that in the morning. Space allowing i have hopped back or forwards to get a good pedal position, or done a saddle lift.
Speed humps, no problem.
Done some kerb drops, no problem.
Did a bit of gentle hack and slash through traffic (filtering).
My freewheel rattles a bit on bumps and rough tarmac, on smooth good tarmac the silence is unerving, so used to slight rattles and squeaks, in SS mode the bike is quiet when the drive is under load but it's spooky quiet fixed.
Must find a bell.
Will remove freewheel over the weekend when i swap back to the Gold frame as missed the full mudguards in the rain last night.
Knees seem to be coping as as hoped less ache today.
:)
