so question
i KNOW most of you guys dont do gears, but i have a 1987/88 bridgestone radac 3100. I want aerospoke wheels on it. can i keep the rear cassette? how do i get the nifty wheels you guys have without going fixie. i have WAYYYYY too many hills (live at the base of a mountain chain) so i cant go fixie and ride to and from work and not just aerospokes, but wheels in general, are they made different for fixies vs roadies. like does the sprocket slide over where the cassette woudl mount? or is a whole hub?

But in general, fixed cog's screw on and are held on by a lockring. I don't know too much about cassette type hubs but I'd assume a fixed hub might be too wide.

rear wheels for road bikes are 130mm spacing(around 1990 and newer), 126mm for older road bikes and track bikes are usually 120mm, some 110mm. aerojokes are mainly for looks or for tricks, not for any aero dynamic advantage... NO pro's use them and why spend 300-400 on 1 wheel when you can probably make a better wheel from parts that would be better in everyway.(except looks maybe) |

not a bad starting point. nice that it has almost no logos on it. diggin the gold chain.....hope it was anodized tho. alot of companies just spray paint them and it flakes off pretty quick.
now rid yourself of the rear brake please. the brake line going down the frame kills the clean look |

are u kidding. YAJ man. u can get complete vivalos for like 500$..... after importing that bike to the US itll be like a G. i've imported 3 nagasawa frames to the states and everytime they were only 5-600$, but by the time they reach the states....they were 8-900. STILL worth it. i miss them much . 350$ for kilo TT shipped to your door from bikesdirect and 250$ on either... 1. wheelset+cog 2. cranks + ring + chain 3. new pedals + bra setup+new saddle dew eat Quote:
Honestly i woudln't recommend and aero-joke wheelset at all. They are heavy in comparison to even spoked wheelsets and they served nearly no aerodynamic purpose. Aesthetically they look "cool" but c'mon. |

That's what I'm using right now. Currently my fav drops. Some people cry about the drop that they have compared to Profile's or something. But I have no complaints.
