Probably done to death already, but what are the best components to get when aiming for a feathery fixed gear? The frame weighs 3 pounds (with headset cups and seat clamp) and the uncut carbon fork I have is 1.1 lbs.
Open Pros w/ low-flange hubs are, I believe, quite adequate, but what about cranks, tires, stem and others?
If there is an older thread, I'd be delighted if you'd point me to its direction.
And yes: I know there are more important things to consider, but would still like to know. Nothing better to do, at the moment.
