because he has a 42t on the front, you will have a 46t so its not the same, 20t will just be to easy

also you can coast down the hills, we fixed gear guys can't!

Ah ok, cheers for clearing that up, my shop only has 20t sprockets in and I doubt I'll bother ordering one in unless they give me discount.

Depending on how much they'll charge, but if it's cheap I'll go for 18t. Salute

Sorry to sound like a wimp but will 16t be easy on my legs in hilly areas though?

I might just go for 16t then, make it easier and cheaper. Wink

not like you can't ride it then change it later

at the moment it looks like the guerciotti will be SS, maybe with a basket, bmx pedals and some chillin' swept back bars, probably go for a 46:16

I'd ditch the basket as it'll ruin it looks wise, but would be good to see it as an SS bike.

but think about the things you can carry! wont have to stuff my bag up tight so something digs in my back, or ziptie the zip so some bars don't fly out, or carry a carrier bag on the handlebars when my bags full, i could just put my bag in the basket, along with my lock, spare hoody, girlfriends handbag, or not even use a bag, those are nice days

then i still have my peugeot and orbit to look cool Wink


it will look cool in a slightly stupid way, trust me
