Ah okay, I think I'll sell the PX on then - It would probably be fine for someone wanting a sweet Carbon hipster sled bike. Only issue is whether the Dolan will clear the chainring I want to put on it. 58 teeth - anyone know about clearance? My Dolan PC is a pretty old model
ShutUpBlud-
My old one just about clears a 53, but flex means ring rubs the chainstay when you really go for it.

Eons ago I had a 61T on my precursa. Slightly longer spindle but not enough to fuck up the chainline too much. Wouldnt use a 58 for racing though, 53 and selection of 13-16t should do you for pretty much any race
-
Why 58t? surely something like a 48/14 will suffice, or even a 52/13 if you need it that high.

I've also heard the Planet X being referred to as 'about as aero as a brick'. That plus flexy means I'd agree with the others - Dolan for racing.
