getting 35mm SKS Bluemels
Get 45mm ones and 35mm tyres, have fun!

Wish I'd gone for a wider wheel/tyre than the aerotracks/28 mm paselas (which come up small) as the roads are so knackered. Got some cx rims/32 mm gatorskins on another bike and they are great - so much more comfy.

Schwalbe Road Cruisers- and Deltas rolling resistance will suck the life out of you.

Shouldn't have started reading this topic a few weeks ago... too much fun
Since I recently upgraded my fixed gear with some nicer parts and my commuter/roadbike fell apart after 2 years of commuting in salt and grime, I got a nice pile of leftover pieces to build something up for the upcoming winter. So I got a Pompino.. I must say that after 3 days of riding, I've completely fallen in love.
So the current setup:
Raw burn, M (I'm 176cm or 5'9 if ever useful for anyone)
SRAM S300 (48t) / GXP
Shimano 105 5800 STI levers
Tektro 926AL (rear still to be mounted, but probably just for the looks)
Miche Pistard rear with 17t fixed cog and Mavic Aksium front wheel
Random Bontrager stem, handlebar and seatpost
And very fast 23c tires, lol
Thinking of getting 35mm SKS Bluemels and tanwall Schwalbe Road Cruisers in 32c to complete the build.
bai :)
