9 Legendary, DISCONTINUED Fixed Gear Parts

[@ZachGallardo]

Omniums have been discontinued, and the raging Omnium vs. Sugino 75 debate has come to an end. What fixed gear parts from back in the day do you miss?

[@wargeyuu2468]

I miss the omniums and the breakbrake 17 TRANSFER LOW PRO FRAME also follow my ig @godnnotfamous

I wanted to get the bb17 transfer so bad :(

No more Omni’s huh?

[@zoeflaschner6171]

Literally waiting for an old made in the USA cannondale track frame to arrive in the mail sometime this week... this video made me happy

The KHS Aero Track aluminum will always top my list.

Yes, yes, yes!!!!

[@Joshg51v]

Just picked up a GTB with Omniums and I’m excited to make it my dream Tarck bike. Big Mash SF inspiration since they’re local to me and have cool new bits that’ll fit the build.

[@MrLuminarious]

i always have my eye out for Campagnolo Record Pista cranks, Rolf Prima track wheels, AND THE MOST UNICORN OF ALL CINELLI LASER FRAME!!!!

if i can give you an advice DON T buy cinelli laser it is made with shit and the tubing is basically water pipes

GIVE ME OMNIUMS OR GIVE ME DEATH!

[@lucassloan1656]

Dudes, I have a legendary part apparently? Last year, I bought a frameset from a cousin for $50 used and couldn't for the life of me figure out what it was... Until now that is. My Leader frame, pre-crap Seatpost clamp gen, is pretty spotless. I think the previous owner before my cousin picked it up painted over with a matte black finish (pretty well I might add) to go with this odd carbon fork. Anyway, I feel freakin' cool as hell right now, ngl.

[@norswil8763]

This was all so spot on... I still get a little weak in the knees over those buttery, blue C dale frames..

[@cesaramedinadiaz1908]

Vendetta!🤘🤘🤘 Great vid Zach

[@cianlacy6515]

thanks to this video, I learned the bike frame I recently bought for a steal is an EAI Bareknuckle! I was shocked, I refurbished and repainted it and it rides beautifully!

[@numbaoneg101]

Omniums were so dope. I hope they come back eventually.

Great video. It took me back to my first fixed from 2007.

Love your content Zach, you inspired me to start my own youtube channel. Thank you for motivation.

[@ricartarmandseverino9149]

Stumbled upon this episode again. We really don’t know if omniums have been discontinued... because my local bike spot just restocked 50 units of these in black and 25-30 for the silver ones. Quite a lot in my opinion. ✌🏻

[@daveyponderosa9549]

Last batch maybe?

Well this helped me choose which bike to ride today. Fixie with the Omnium crank!

[@andris2345]

Tribe messengers also made triple triangle frameset and are now discontinoued, are they not?

[@1slow_gto]

Yes they are, a matter of fact I have one and I gotta love it. 4130 tripple butted Chromoly Steel is reasonably light and durable with decent stiffness

[@freedomwon2004]

Thank you Zach for your video's. I have a mid 70's Raleigh Super Course i bought at a thrift shop for $12. Its complete and in pretty good shape overall. I've thought about turning it into a single speed. I'm to old and beat up to do a fixie anymore.

[@SiopaoSauc3]

Leaders 725s we're never my thing. I fell in love with the Renovatio and still wonder why it didn't blow up. That frame had lines for days.

[@StandbyCymbalist]

I wonder how many people who think they are flexing their cranks, are just flexing the frame at the bottom bracket shell..?

[@daveyponderosa9549]

Exactly!

[@fiatfixie4344]

I've got the 2008 Cannondale Capo. It fell into their "urban" line up. It retains a fairly steep seat angle and tall bottom bracket but a traditional road bike head tube angle. American made, clean and simple uncluttered paint scheme(unlike many Cannondales of the era). Such a cool fun bike.

[@timhofmann7523]

I have a titanium Lasky track bike made in to a Single speed pretty amazing with Omnium crank and a Brooks saddle

[@numbaoneg101]

[@fahriz_al]

I'm using them. They're good, as long as the threads don't get loss

[@daveyponderosa9549]

Not bad at all. There’s certainly better, but there’s definitely far worse.

[@onebigdarkroom3945]

I still don't get this dudes hate for the Omnium esp the bottom bracket. I put nearly 4600 miles into mine on a state undefeated mk2 and didn't once have creaking issues but I never tried another frame so those issues frame clearance quirks are probably valid with other frames. I miss that build, whoever was in charge of putting ritchey components and an Omnium on that frame for under 1500 was a mad genius, scholar and gentleperson. That ride was the stiffest, snappiest crank and I was extremely happy. I wasn't hitting crits but I would push hard at times. Gonna miss these 😢

[@Fxdedjohnny]

Crazy how all these parts are now wanted as soon as their gone

[@FernandoHernandez-jw4yy]

Well, the longer they're gone the rarer they'll be. For some people that matters. Also: The grass is always greener on the other side.

[@HaniJIsmail]

I still have my first bike, a early 80s conversion Centurion sitting on a pair of pink b43s. The front needs truing bad but im lazy to bring it in to a bike shop at the moment. but those wheels look great today and still get a lot of compliments and i've put mine thru hell and they're still serving me well.

[@roshanentity3735]

leader bikes was sold to brotures tokyo

[@jonesparza2323]

For some reason all the fixed bikes I've owned have been classic American frames. Wasn't looking for them but they just ended up coming to me for really cheap

[@metalrain6011]

I disagree with Toshi straps being the pinnacle of toe straps. I would consider Kashimax Five Gold toe straps to be the best I have ever used. And they look better. I also disagree with “SRAM Omniums look pretty dang cool” They very ugly cranks Paul Royal Flush track cranks are legendary imo and discontinued as well as kashimax top tube protector

[@jackand100others3]

Oh I have a rare pair of 650c velocity b43s in purple and they are amazing. sucks that I don't ride a 47cm or lower frame also FSA vigorelli is something I wish they still made and Unknown bikes type 2

[@Oichief]

The ayrton silverstone is similar to the cannondale track but only cost around 380~usd. What are your opinions?

[@ZachGallardo]

I've never ridden either, but Cannondale has a reputation for having an awesome ride quality . While the Ayrton Silverstone looks like a nice frameset, looking like a Cannondale Track and riding like a Cannondale Track are completely different things. Solid choice if you just want something that's inspired by the legendary frameset.

[@Oichief]

@@ZachGallardo thanks. The frame is decently spec'd for the price with 6061 triple butted aluminium the kendo orbit is only 6061 double butted but it's more expensive in my country atleast

[@Ion_Motion0117]

Hey, my bike shop said I couldn’t change my 130 bcd bottom bracket to a 144. Is there a reason for that?

[@fahriz_al]

Um, bcds are only for cranks not bottom brackets

[@mdlouie]

BCD, or bolt circle diameter refers to cranks and chainrings. So if you want to go from 130 to 144, you would need a new crank and chainring. Of course, the new crankset must be compatible with the bottom bracket (and the bottom bracket must be compatible with the frame), but otherwise it should be straightforward. Maybe get a second opinion from another shop.

[@hhhrrruuulll]

Do you guys know where i can buy fixie good parts from US that can shipped to Malaysia. Because here in Malaysia its so hard to find a good part for fixie.

[@faster4tec]

Omnium used the gxp type bb though, wear out very quickly on the non drive side bearing. I think miche make a nice looking track cranks et, called the aero or something like that

[@harlidawidoo9294]

Hey Zach how about explaining the difference between bottom brackets? Like this kind of bottom bracket one would use for omniums, I don't get how they are installed 😅

[@dodgethis9193]

Is it just srams focus on wireless groupsets and MTB that killed omnium or something like returns on them? Honestly I don't understand the end of them as 1/3 fixed gears I see are omnium fitted, makes my s300s look like Amazon specials

[@davidburgess741]

The way I see it is a track bike is so easy to get to the UCI weight minimum that there is little need to invest in lighter designs. Most of us are riding fixed bikes that would be laughed out of any velodrome anyway. When's the last time you glued one tubular tire to ride a fixed gear on the road? It makes no sense for a manufacturer to mass produce a bike for the road that weighs 12 lbs which is attainable. No good for the velodrome, to expensive to ride on the road!

[@dodgethis9193]

Fair comment im digging my s300s atm and done me well with no issues (the gxp bb is a bonus over the 100s aswell). Theyre a nightnare to source in UK so I just went through Germany and got them for 80 euros haha but yeah on the fixed gears atm, im riding a 4130 tracklocross frame with 700mm bars so my hype machine would be laughed at by the guy on the 6k BMC but then again mine actually has usability outside haha

[@dodgethis9193]

If I was gonna get track ready gear now id prob go 75s anyway now

[@xeverettx2564]

2. GT frameset is an all time classic that I think all of us has owned at some point or another starting in the late 90’s with the track bike boom. Great messenger frame. 1. The Cannondale is just a masterpiece!! The beauty of steel frame with the attributes and handling of aluminum. Another frame us old schoolers have been building up for decades now. Every line in the geometry is pure perfection! It is the holy grail of American track frames!!!!!! So yeah super good call putting them at their respective places. I kinda thought these two would make the list if you put framesets on and not just components!!!!

[@BenWilliams-ie4wc]

The Cannondale is aluminium not steel

[@GetSeedsRightHere]

You were doing so great, but no mention of Paul's Royal Flush cranks?

[@davidburgess741]

I looked at that too. What if they stopped making them though? Probably use some weird standards and pricey too. Still got to be about the best of the best and last a long time.

[@TRILLdUP713]

Is the All-City Nature Boy ACE a good buy or are there similar bikes that have a better bang for your buck?

[@davidburgess741]

Omniums! Let the buyer beware. What good is it with their defective bb GXP? Good riddance! I did see an ad for a Sugino crank with either a bb 30 or a 24mm axle design 144 bcd. Maybe you could get one and try it.

[@M.asa.]

the sugino 75dd is just too expensive but looks good. it is also alot better than the omnium but for the price difference i would choose the miche pistard crankset or the vision track crankset that are closer priced to the omnuims

[@davidburgess741]

I believe that Miche Primato uses a small Q factor design which won't clear all chain stays. Miche seems to be similar to Campagnolo in their standards and they do not I believe use the JIS standard bottom bracket. Maybe Miche would work on a Cinelli frame. Cinelli now made in Taiwan and that's no guarantee of which standard it's using now.

[@M.asa.]

@@davidburgess741 the primato has a square taper bb and it fits on a jis bb so it shoudnt be a big problem, the pistard fits on all my frames and also have friends who ride it, then omnium didnt fit one of my frames but the pistard did.

[@davidburgess741]

Well that's the one I'd use then. If price were no barrier we'd all be riding Hope McClaren track bikes on the road. The market determines what gets produced and it's good to see Omniums leave the gene pool!

[@nefariousstylo9943]

Not missing Omnoms, hollow bottom brackets aren't a new concept and SRAM couldn't be bothered to do the obvious homework to ease compatibility. Andel Deluxe are a far better investment and as long as people still hold that Square Taper bottom brackets are 'just as stiff' as hollow spindles then the entire debate of the most rigid crankset simply doesn't hold water.

[@davidburgess741]

Apparently according to Hambini the most egregious problem with GXP was the rattling loose fit of non drive side bearing on the shaft. That was enough for me not to "upgrade ".
