Re: 1995 DBR Axis TT [fixed gear experiment FINISHED -> page 6]
Updated again:
New cranks. 170 mm Turbines. The old Middleburns kept loosening up in the spider/spline department.
New pedals. These are very light but unfortunately the left pedal has developed some play.
New seatpost. Slight setback in this one.
New saddle. This one is softer, the earlier Flite TT was too hard for my poor arse.
New stem. Longer, with a bit of rise.
New handlebar. Plenty of backsweep in this one, and it was very cheap too.
New brake. Like night and day compared to the earlier mechanical one.
New grips. Ritchey foams, love them.
