Just completed the Manchester to Blackpool ride on my first fixed (Fuji Track), mostly off the peg components apart from a short stem, risers and a front brake.
Have to say, apart from a sore arse and hands (my fault for not wearing cycling shorts and gloves) it was pretty comfy and stood me in good stead.
Wondering whats the furthest anyone has ridden on a bike with track geo like this, Im interested in doing the Manchester 100, but not sure whether my Fuji will be the best ride.
On a side note, any other fixie riders from Manchester want to help a newb get fit, maybe some rides to Buxton and the like?
