Picture of beautiful brake p0rn

T H A N K S !
Great shot, just what I wanted to see.

OK. When you buy your fuji track, move the rear wheel backwards and forwards in the dropout and look at the changes in the clearance with the rear brake bridge. This will answer your questions.

Any normal road brake with a drop for 35-45mm I would have thought would be fine. Tektro or Shimano 105s are a good price point.

Thanks for replying... I appreciate it.

Is that picture of your bike as it is at the moment?

No, that's an image off Flickr.

If you have a bike with either track or horizontal dropouts, then where on the dropouts you fixed the wheel will make a difference to how much clearance you have.

In that picture there maybe a problem with using a rear brake.

Look at the rear wheels on these in relation to the seat tube.

Thanks for this... so I could get a little more clearance for popping on a back brake.
That wouldn't effect the cain tension then ?

Standard brake will fit OK ?

something like these...

RE: Fuji Classic Track

Hello,

I know that this Fuji is a track bike, if ridden on the street, and god forbid ridden single speed then one brake is enough... but if you wanted to add a back brake, is it possible?
There seems to be only 2mm tyre clearance.

Many thanks,
Awkwardo

Fyxation, have a Regal look-a-likey...
With cool looking tacky transfer star on it.

The red stripe... makes the bike go faster.

**Instant Pure Indulgence **

Two and half heaps in a small cup - pure rocket juice.

While I use a Spoon for both eating soup and riding about on.
I would like to own a Brooks ( Because everyone else goes on about them all the time )
I wouldn't mind trying ( plonking down on ) a Soma Okami.
Never seen one up close and personal - but it looks OK, just wish it came in brown.

Tokyo fixed have it on sale...

I brought a pair of 'Gul' sailing Gloves for winter riding.
The 3 fingered variety, so two fingers freeze.

On and off easily, warmish and two fingers... because I love to feel alive.

It's a great looking saddle and from the hundred miles or so I've ridden on it, feels good too !

Cheers :)

Makes sense to be the standard model I suppose.

Hi, everyone.

Wanted to ask if anyone knew what kind of Charge 'Spoon' saddle
is on the standard factory issued Plug ( Bullhorn/slice bar type ).

The Titanium Rails ( 50 quid version), or the standard ( 24 spondulicks )

Thanks in advance,
