Another interesting question is, at what price point is a steel frame optimized functionally? $600-700? Let’s remove aesthetics out of consideration, because a beautiful custom frame with tasteful lugs or fillet brazing, a stellar paint job and internal routing can be worth $2000 and up (rightfully so) but is is functionally better then a $600 TIG welded frame set? My guess is no. In this question, let’s also take standard 4130 double butted tubing, and not consider fancier tubing.

Tensioners works similar to derailleurs, they pull the chain to be strung between cog and cranks only in upper part; if you'll try to skid or put any back force on pedalls the tensioner will bend flat with nothing to tension chain on the upper part of the drivetrain; it will get loose leading to chain skipping tooths on cog or falling from it entirelly. On single speed convertions freewheel doesn't let you to aply enough back force to bend tensioner flat.

I took the cheap frame, quality components route when initially built my bike 8 years ago. Couldn’t be happier. Leader 722ts + custom powdercoated fork, average track wheelset, Omniums, King (headset from the parts bin), some Cinelli/Mash bits, Laminated double straps (Cadence), GR9’s and some good rubber. Cost was $780-ish and it’s been absolutely bombproof. I’ve never gotten a flat (it was a commuter bike for a while but I religiously keep pressure topped off) and never had a single issue with ANY components. People, if you have budget constraints there is only one GOOD option for you: Cheap frame + quality parts = The Move Go the opposite route and I can basically assure you that at the end of the day your fancy frame will feel awful with your mushy cranks, ill fitting saddle and your boat anchor of a wheelset on skinny tires. As a bit of an aside, Leader may be a shitty company, I mean, they really screwed folks over, however, I’d be hard pressed to speak poorly of that frame. It’s been stellar, especially so for the price. That is all.

I’m not sure the premise here is that sound. Custom builds cost more than complete bikes. Period. At $1000, it is far better to buy a complete bike and upgrade as you go along. You get far better bang for your buck, and as you learn what you like, you can adjust accordingly. Bike companies have economies of scale individuals just don’t have. This rule works for geared and non-geared bikes. $1000 is a lot of money. But it’s not a lot when you buy every bolt separately. Trust me; I know. That’s why my latest gravel build (geared, thank you) ran about $6k. But the best $100 you can spend is on a Brooks. No contest.
@davidburgess7414 жыл бұрын
Agree, completes get you more bike for the money. Upgrades can be made later when you identify needs. Bikefit is critical and can make a good saddle uncomfortable. I bought a Cinelli Crest saddle for my road bike and it works wonderfully. My Aventon now has one. Tires make about as much difference as the frame material. Quality steel rides smoother but always felt too flexible under hard effort. Aluminum never lets you forget the frame material choice. Aluminum frames surge forward with hard effort. Nobody in their right mind would ride a true track bike on the road with disk wheels and tubular tires. The bikes we ride are a compromise of price, performance, and practicality.

Ph i assume, just upgraded from cheap heavy steel fixie to a tsunami. Considered the Tutubi too but i liked the geomwtry of the tsunami more but i think they are both good, just preference i guess.

@@cygnusx1858 I know tsunamis a better frame but for a beater bike I think its too much (even for my wallet) Those beautiful colors, I'd be pissed if I gets scratches or dents. Also, they don't have bottle cage bosses not like the Tutubi Needle.

Why not just increase your budget?

Because you're already defeating the purpose of fixies, which were meant as a cheaper alternative to full bikes, with a budget of 1 grand, especially considering many mid to high end bikes cost that amount. You're essentially paying more for less.

The views dropped because it's the exact same content. His core viewers (us) will still enjoy his content, but most people will eventually get bored.

I'd go for a nice frame and shitty components and gradually swap m out over time for nice components.
