> [@Quattro Krant](#): > > How hard does it get to pedal with the light roller engaged? I love the ride of my steel winter bike-not the lightest thing out there but it rides NICE. WHat are you going to do on Schwinn for shifters? Run sti style with the little adjusters on the down tube? I’ll be honest, I have no idea…I also don’t know what you are talking about haha, this is my first venture into bicycles. I used to BMX but there wasnt much to those bikes really. ---

I used to BMX but there wasnt much to those bikes really. STi style shifters refer to the type where your brake levers sweep in and that changes the gears up or down. On older bikes, like my winter rig, the frame was older then this type of shifter set up, so you use these little triangles on the down tube where the cable gets routed to make this all work. ---

> [@newman](#): > > LSD? I didn’t think people even bothered now that the chainring is so small… It wasn’t for for reasons like that, It just makes sprocket grinds easier with having pegs on the right side. Haven’t decided if I’m going to bother going lsd when I upgrade my rear wheel, depends If I find a good used wheel or not I guess. ---

After being alerted by kcuv about this cheap Chinese throwaway, I scooped one up for 170 shipped… and had a 25 dollar giftcard to apply towards it.

1" threaded steer tube and $2 headset, mild steel quill stem, stamped steel seat post clamp, and mild steel post? Yikes, I’d have to sink a few bucks into it to make sure nothing would break and hurt me. I woulda went up a few steps just for safety. ---

This is why you went to APEX Base for your rig and not China. I just got out of yet another Cat scan, MRI & arthrogram the other day for a chain that failed in '98 and obliterated my shoulder and requires rebuilding the bone structure of the joint riding around EA. ---

Because I’m a CAAD9 faggot, I just couldn’t resist another one. Found it as a used frame and it looks brand new-GF didn’t believe me that it wasn’t new. Also-I have no idea why the carpet looks filthy, that is a clump of George hair by the dropout, but the carpet isn’t all dirty. ![http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j99/quattrokrant/DSCN2194.jpg](http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j99/quattrokrant/DSCN2194.jpg) ![http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j99/quattrokrant/DSCN2195.jpg](http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j99/quattrokrant/DSCN2195.jpg) This one is most likely going to get SRAM Red as I think it will be nice to try out something new component wise. ---
