Road fixed / fixed road

Very nice! How are you finding the tyres?

They really unlock the #whatpressureyourunning game.

More seriously they are really comfortable and forgiving even towards the higher pressure range. Towards the really low there comes a point at which the flanges start collapsing when turning and that’s quite unnerving, but we’re talking about 10psi low. So really pleased all round. Also it’s nice to have a tubeless tyre that stays seated when deflated and goes back up with a track pump, makes sealant top up a breeze compared to the g-one / hydra combo.

I was gonna suggest trying G-Ones out. I had the horizons and thought they felt a tad slow

How do you find the combo of fixed and big volume? I've been pondering it and figured a part of what makes a single ratio manageable is snappy acceleration up to speed, while there's always that kind of lag when you've got big tyres like that. Probably overthinking it.

Bought this a month ago for commuting, fits here.

It’s okay. Though tbh it’s not a bike to rush anywhere!

Nice setup. Is this a size 56? (...looks like it)

56cm it is, need to ride it again once the weather settle.

Been enjoying my fixed road for a few hacks about the mucky lanes recently.

Also at ease on gravel forest roads :-)

Excellent build, and a spacer stack after my own heart.

Here's my winter roadie. Considering ditching the drops and going flatbar. Anyone done that? Anyone advise against it?
