I think I've even seen something that says a frame size as much as "4 cm less than than would fit on the old 2.5 degree models" is ideal. I'm going to be offline for a bit and unable to corroborate that with a reference though. In the meantime, standover heights for the new atlanti ARE

Matt, are you sure you don't mean a fixed gear? Braking with a single speed equipped with caliper brakes is the same as braking with a bike with a derailleur. If you are not used to braking on a fixed gear and simply stop your pedaling motion when you apply the brake, you may nearly do a

Hi Craig, Thanks for the interesting info. I’ve had some experience with fixed gear riding, just locally and on a much lighter bike. Having the QB now, with those great track dropouts, I thought I should take advantage and make a multi-gear fixie. This would allow me to extend my travels out
