48/19 was too spiny for me. I'm now rolling on a comfortable 48/17 which around town and uphill is fine but down the hill by the American Cemetery I'm hitting the brakes at around 32/33mph. It's called personal preference.
^^Hallelujah. Tried the 48/17 on the rear halo aerotrack and vittoria rubino pro (23c) today and it felt smooth and organic. Perfect gear ratio and tyre combination for me, and no, I ain't lance armstrong and I use my front brakewhen needed.

I live in Bristol, which is quite hilly along the path I travel. I used the stock 48/16 for a few months which I kinda liked although can be hard. Tried 48/18 which was way too spinny for me, so I've just swapped it for a 17T, although haven't tried it yet.

Thought it was about time I put a picture of mine up since I've changed the stock rear wheel today!

Stock 48/15, haven't really thought of changing yet.

Anyone knows the difference in sizes between 2007 and 2008 headsets for the fuji track? I reckon mine's knackered as its grinding when you turn side to side. I've taken it out, cleaned and regreased it without much improvement, so probably looking at a replacement.

Hey peeps, probably a dumb question: how does one find what size headset to replace existing one?

Hi peeps,
I've just impulsively acquired two racers from fleabay, thought I'd have a go at conversions/restorations. Anything in particular I should look out for? I thought I'd start with the Dawes rust bucket. Pictures to follow once the sun comes out again...
Cheers.
I'll take the front off you if they'll fit my fuji track?
Ta.
