Is my bicycle a track bike or a fixed gear ?
I’m not even sure anymore.. I ride both in wooden track and the streets/road too.
Here is the description/specs on my bike.
-Dura Ace FC 7710 170mm NJS track cranks, with FC 7710 NJS BB
-LOOK Carbon KEO clipless pedals
-Sugino Zen 50T Chainring
-Thomson x2 90mm Stem
-Thomson Masterpiece 31.6 seatpost
-Selle Italia SMP Evolution Saddle
-Easton E90 Carbon Track BAR ( Used both on the Track/Road )
-D.I.D NJS track racing pro chain
-ZIPP 808 Front Tubular with a TUFO Elite Pulse Tire
-Rear 2011 Mavic Ellipse with a 14t EAI Golden Medal Track COG with a Dura Ace Lockring, but on the indoor/outdoor track I use a Campagnolo Pista Track Rear wheel with a 13t Dura Ace COG.
-My frame is Cinelli Mash 2010 55cm GREY ( non-drilled )
Would it be a fixed or is it plain track ? I hate when people call my bicycle a fixie
, it’s more a track bike…
Track bikes ARE fixed gear bikes.
