Ok - so have a singlespeed bike I cobbled out of old/odd bits, and am going to upgrade/replace gradually.. YES I am learning about this stuff so don't have a clue etc etc. This one will be Fixed
Cinelli Mash/Vigorelli - what are the pros and cons of each? I'm looking for one in 53cm, decided I want Aluminium with Carbon as it's what I have at the moment and want to keep road noise to a minimum on commute.
Wheels - was thinking deep Vs, what's best for a fast, lightweight build for speeding along to work on London roads? Once again trying to keep it comfortable. Also, advice on hubs would be appreciated, what is important here?
Crankset - want something light, strong and short (I have a fear of pedal strike!), something track related a good idea? Was thinking Sugino 75 or similar, but don't want to spend a tonne of money for the sake of it.
Any helpful advice, offers to sell are appreciated!
