    and for those who want to travel with their bikes ... watch out for the law... brakeless driving could lead to a long walk, cause the cops take your bike away. ATM they run a campaign against the local fixed scene ( it's illegal to drive brakeless in good'ol Germany and now the number of fixed bikes reached a critical mass there, were the officials took notice. there has to be done something ... let's ban it!)

    hi,

    is there any way to protect my compos from the root of all evil ( aka the bike theft). i think especially of my wheels, the ordinary nuts look like an offer to everyone with a basic toolset ...
    for my mtb i had quick release axles with a special key to open them ... is there something similar for track hubs? some very exotic nuts would also do the job ...

    thx

    i hope it's ok to hijack this thread but whats a normal wheel size inc. tire for a 23-622 rim?
    i know they may vary between 660 and 680mm but whats a common size or informal standard?
