I like internal hubs myself, but road racers aren't wont to lose gears and gain grams.AChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15275640044306692909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6365010019581744179.post-86783577355815108582009-11-09T01:58:20.513+02:002009-11-09T01:58:20.513+02:00I'm curious as to why this innovation is expre...I'm curious as to why this innovation is expressing itself in the fixed gear community before becoming standardized in the road racing industry. Is it just a trend or does it really work? I would think the amount of weight shed between belt and chain would prompt the road community to have already incorporated the change a long time ago.<br /><br />Or is it because it requires a deadly accurate belt line? Chains seem to be more forgiving in that respect.<br /><br />I still wanna give one a try, though. It's hard to pass judgment without actually having put it between your legs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6365010019581744179.post-16248228854102728352009-11-05T17:14:53.063+02:002009-11-05T17:14:53.063+02:00Very cool, especially since I wear bleached white ...Very cool, especially since I wear bleached white bell-bottoms to work!F.W.
