nick_the_wheelbuilder Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 my new steed....all done with left overs.she's purrrrring at 34/20 surly steel rigid, stiff as ***, but real nice It's not the fork, it's the ally frame that makes that ride stiff as "***". Get a steel frame bud, you'll never look back.
Monark Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 I agree, I have a stiff carbon fork but my steel frame makes the ride a pleasure. The bonus with the STR is that the bike is really not heavy at all.
