Fixed Super Light Super Safe

Are the hubs double fixed? I thought they were single sided. Plus I don't want to completely bit on your style :)

you won't. your bike will be attractive and you have not yet taken up wearing muscle mary shirts

Have you seen any of my bikes James? None of them are lookers.

I think you only need a couple spokes on each wheel laner.

Think I'm light enough for low spoke count wheels, but would prefer an otp wheel set to start off with. I see a set of mack super lights hubs ordered in the near future.

budget?

A fair bit in the future that will be.

What's the best option for a fixed/fixed clincher wheel set in terms of weight?

Get Chinese crabon. If you're going to do it, at least do it right.

If you can find me a otp carbon clincher wheel with a fixed/fixed hub I would consider it

Probably be able to get them to do a fixed fixed hub.

Get the fuck on with it.

Why don't you do MDCC_Tester's Shimano rs30 + surly fixxer trick?

Surely more aero than a track wheelset, unless you're going for proper lightness for hillclimbing, rather than aero-ness for TTs.

surly fixxer won't make it doublesided. I won't be buying a wheelset that i can't get two sprockets with lockrings on, i'm lazy like that.

Lightness would be beneficial for Bexley TTs because they involve a big up hill section, but it's not the most important criteria.

You get more gains from being aero than you do from being light.

At points of Bexley on the up hill I'm going under 20mph, so not so concerned with aeroness at that point.

Making stuff aero involves zero scales shots.

Much worse.

oh and Laner AQA >>>>>>>>

but the 45mph+ on the way home outweighs the 18mph speed dips on the way out, no?

Trufax. I base my entire TT on struggling my balls off on the uphill and then spinning 53/11 all the way down the hill at 48mph. The only way i can see an improvement in time is by getting faster up hills, which isn't going to happen - i like hangin out with Iain in the gym and wearing muscle mary t-shirts.

but the 45mph+ on the way home outweighs the 18mph speed dips on the way out, no?

interesting point. I always considered my ability on the uphill part to be my failing. But actually looking at the splits, i have a better ranking on the uphill than the downhill :/

So yes, you're probably right.

anyway, tt thread >>>>>>>>

indeed, stop derailing a thread about a bike that never gets ridden with chat about cycling

this will soon be, the "super Light, Super sale" thread.

61 pages?

really??

James is right. This thread has become a thread just to troll me.

Whatever value in it is hidden by layers of not so funny people
