Hi!
Thanks!
Gear ratio : 38:15 for me it's perfect,not too slow,not too hard.Acceleration is very good.Yeah,very nice towner,rigid-strong-efficient-fast,but comfortable,thanks to the awsome Explosif frame.I don't realy like AL frames..Smile
Next update : 29-er wheels,they fit nicely with a skinny tireSmile

O.K. Mr.Armstrong...Smile
I live one of the hill areas of Budapest,so that's one of the reasons why I use this ratio...oh and my legs are weak as chicken s##t,haha...
Try to keep my knees in good condition(I'm 34).Force them is not O.K.Smile

People think I'm crazy for running 25-10 on a DJ bike. But I guess if you have the legs to push the pedals haha

when my parents warn me that wearing cheap shoes will give me foot problems, i remind them that by the time those problems manifest themselves, it'll be the year 2025 and i'll be able to buy a brand new pair of feet grown from my own DNA
