I have gone full circle with ghetto setups running SS and when you get a proper SS frame the difference in wheel security and ride feel with proper tension is night and day.... and our daily commute loop was 50km, in rain, wind or shine in CT. Something like the ROOK One is a good buy to get started on. https://rookcycles.com/collections/new-bikes-in-stock/products/rook-one-the-emerald Mornings , I absolutely hear you and couldn't agree more , hence I'm on the look out for an old steel track bike frame in the 50 to 53 cm range .. .I will get one , in the meantime I will be "gently" be pedaling on the OCR3...
