SSCX Only!

is that sscx or just a hybrid?

Do people with hybrids fall on icy tree roots and do cool skids on rides?

Is that magic geared or ebb?

The stem is back!

Did a skid in my pants last hybrid I owned, derailleur exploded while doing a wheelie.
Had to walk it from Ladywell to the bike shop in Lewisham.

rather than rehashing is this sscx, i think we shouldn't be distracted from the reality of the last photo

what looks like a picturesque wood, maybe in the middle of the pnw, is actually no more than 200m from a suburban estate. close enough that the joneses can look out their window and say "it's no 34 again, he's on that traffic light bike, you'd think the amount of time he spends shouting at it in the shed he'd take it further, it's not like he needs cx practice with those bars"

SSCX/Singlespeedcyclocross is a mouthful to say aloud anyways, we need a new name. It's super necessary

Still Dibs when u sell this, when ever that may be

Rocker Dropouts

It just looks so wrong but oh so right against that yellow frame!!

This place has some fine off road wood wanging tree root slippin loamy goodness.

Lickey hills country park, south Birmingham.

Very well off area, from which the hikers hoot and hola at me when I shout "excuse me" and speed on by trying to bit slip on some tree roots.

10/10 location, just need gears to enjoy how hilly it is.

I would only sell this if I got my hands on a nature boy 853!

Fork is a bit sexeh.

Just had this turn up in the post today. Rims are pretty concave but they are the original wheels- over 10yrs old I reckon.
I'm going to have to do some work to get the fit right but so happy to have a Day One Cross again.

Going to get the hubs built into some new rims?

Yeah, I have a front dynamo wheel anyway but just ordered the spokes for the rear wheel

You have a dynamo wheel for daily duties, but a dedicated baller front wheel for weekend cx action, right?!

I sold mine to a chap I work with, still hoping one day (sorry) it'll be mine again.

Hah agreed!

So SSCX hive mind any recommendations for good value rim brake rims? 32h as that's the hubs I already have.
