Not that it matters too much, but since you do not have the accelerations after constant braking like in a Crit, Use your old bike so that you do not have to worry about taking them off the C-Dale before the next race.

Either option is fine, but that's what I'd do. Plus once you get that freight train up to speed......

Good Luck!

That's great, Fixed. Good TT times mean more when the rider makes the the difference, not the machine.

a shop in Canada? Can't be too many of them down there.

bro thanks for asking ebay from canada took a few weeks to get with customs but worth it ,it was their top of the line road model in brand new shape .i was only riding fixed at the time and was going make it one .but i had some parts and decided to make it a geared bike .I'm glad i did, i have had a lot of bikes over the years and every once in a while you hit it off with a bike .for me it's not that often .
that must be what a custom bike feels like .hell i don't even have a fixie now .maybe i should change my name to gear head.
do you ever see them in canada still ?
no one has ever seen one around here except mine that i have meet but no one ever forgets that purple bike
my next bike? i am always looking for a deal on a csi but bro those are hard to find for low dough cheers :beer:

bro
oh, ya! there are lots of them here, but not many nice ones. most were
late 80's frames with cheap lugs and lower shimano parts. There were
nice one's too, like yours, my old boss had a really nice one back in the day.

The company that runs RockyMountain bikes also owns the rights to Miele,
and they are bringing the brand back in Canada, because so many people
remember it. We sell the kids bikes in the shop where I work! They still
sell purple...
