Fixed Super Light Super Safe

whats the lightest Fixed rear hub i can get?

tester already covered that memory man

Tester's talk was regarding ones which need axles to be machined didnt it? i think iain will want the lightest off the peg solution

BikeHubStore said they are making a fixed gear hub at some point. Might be worth dropping them an email to see when they are planning on getting them done?

66gram front hub. http://www.bikehubstore.com/product-p/ulf66.htm

^they're much cheaper on ebay

Customised axle on a disk hub but you're being lazy.Learn to press F5 before posting.

lazy is not the reason - experience and sourcing are

plus if you remember back at the beginning i said no to highly modified parts. Im still within those requirement.

Too lazy to source an experienced person.

american classic disc 130 is, as the name suggests, 130g. and you can get ceramic bearings for it, is that a bit heavy?

Nope. That'd do nicely.

get a Ti axle made up for it, and a get a normal threaded Ti cog drilled to fit on the disc mount?

With an AC 58 front hub and your choice of light QR to match.

or get one of these

Track hubs are heavy as sin, this is a really good place to shave some weight:

lightest rear track hub should be ac with 180g or mack (in the same region (+-6g))

yeah, they need to be changed

sprocket
seatpost/saddle
pedals
wheels

Looks like you have Ultimate and not KCNC seatpost? Carbon or alloy? Just asking as if I was going to change my USE Sumo carbon with the KCNC Ti Pro Lite alloy would that affect the ride quality? Ideally I need a more inline post.

i thought you said stem at the pub - youre correct about it being a ultimate.

seatpost is alu

It's a bit in need of a custom axle, which seems to have been ruled out.

I was planning to put two pedals on, but at the exact moment I was about to put the second one on I heard a Saffa cry from downstairs about going to the bedroom, so I panicked and hid behind the door.

Fortunately he then disappeared into the bathroom, so I made good my escape.

Not long after that he fell asleep on the bed with his clothes on, dreaming of chainring failures...

Is that actually your bed, Iain?

why?

what were you expecting? My little pony duvet cover?
