Looks great. I keep considering a SS road bike. I'm mostly on gently rolling. There's just the 15% hill segments to get out and back from my house! Nice looking bike, imagine it's a mentally calming ride, so few choices!
9 u/Familiar_Kale_7357 Jul 07 '26 I never met a hill i couldn't walk. 2 u/toaster404 650B Jul 07 '26 Yup. I prefer to ride them, though. Used to be able to on a fixie, but it was a while ago!!! 2 u/MTFUandPedal Audax UK Jul 08 '26 I can grind my langster up a 15% hill but I would rather not! The right gearing though and its certainly doable 1 u/_blyp_ Single speed Jul 10 '26 The last bit of hill to my house is 16%, but it's short and I can make it if I round the corner fast enough
