Dear road.cc forum members,
I’ve tried a charge plug 1 £350 in size L from Tredz but found the cantilever front brake juddered when used, i also would prefer riser bars to the drop ones on it; it came in at a good 10kg. I tried a raleigh (i think propaganda) for approximately £450 but wasn’t to keen on the ride or the weight. An ultimate cro-mo fixi from Harry Hall was a good price under £300, though i only tried it fixi; it weighed a respectable 11.2kg. I then tried a frankenbike from Cycle Logic; unfortunately i didnt gel with the track style bars-they custom build so at £600 you can get a SS to fit you. Finally the best test ride i’ve been on so far is on a Biachi Semplice sale £300; weighs 10.4kg size 530mm-however I was underwhelmed buy its ride.
Can you recommend a SS for me please?-what are your experiences with SS/Fixi bikes? I’d like a ride that has pannier rack mount eyelets ideally- but as my dad says- thats not the point of its simplicity.
