Step 11Verdict

I've had the setup for about a week, no way in hell am i going back to a derailer, at least for my urban bike (on a mountain, thats something different). Give it a few days before you stop having that impulse to switch into a higher gear when your spinning away, after that you really start to enjoy it.

Also, depending on the gear ratio, give it at least a few days to adapt, at least until your not crying 'rape' from spinning so fast after every ride.

Need to share the news... My Sub10 is now truly a Sub10 kg bike! I'm SO happy it hurts. Awesome piece of machinery. I've got the best bike (or best Subby) in old Sydney town. Was running an XT group set (26' wheels, my 700c's are being hand built as we speak), though now have ripped it all off, WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY. Am learning to spin and loving it. Sam.
