• I have read this thread with interest as I'm a newbie considering the urbanhillclimb.com.

    Was feeling pleased that (on paper) I will get my old commuter Langster to 7.5kg cheaply but now think I may as well give up or start again with a lighter frame to be competitive on weight!

  • Thinking fixed, SS or geared?

  • If it’s your first hill climb I wouldn’t worry about the bike too much. Lots of folk do it on a normal bike and you won’t be the heaviest. Do a few this year to see if you enjoy being shouted at by strangers just before you’re sick on yourself (you will do!) and then break into the piggy bank next year to go weight weenie
