  • thought I post my steamroller here too, its my newest "winter" bike (it doesn't snow anymore here, just icy rain sometimes) running 650b wheels.
    seatpost is a placeholder bc it has just 27,0mm , will be swapped soon. this will be mostly for riding in the nearby parks. ratio is 46/19.

  • Nice build. What's the biggest tyres can you can squeeze in with 650b? Keep thinking of doing the same

  • That looks ACE,

    why does everybody else's rollers look so much better than mine.

  • This looks fun too! Is that a 60cm frame?

  • looks great but that chain looks like it's going to make it a massive pain in the arse to get the wheel on and off with it slammed into the rear track ends like that at that tension.

    I remember setting mine up like that once thinking it'd save retensioning when the chain went slack but ended up buying a new chain and fitting so it was a link or two longer as it was a proper faff to do maintenance on it.

  • This is great.

    What's your approx saddle height in that photo? Trying to gauge if a 59 Steamroller would be too small.
