Tyler Durden Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Anyone have any recommendations for a Spring riding jacket? Need something water/wind resistant. Simple, well made, not too flashy... something that wouldn't look too strange if I were wearing it off the bike and walking around... Been perusing some shops/online, but I haven't seen much that I really like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty and bright red, but I wouldn't wear it to the pub. http://www.2xu.com/product/395/ProjectX--XC1/9 http://www.rapha.cc/classic-softshell-jacket/ http://www.rapha.cc/tweed-softshell-1/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I manage to get paint on everything I own at some point, so I'm hesitant to drop more than three bills on a jacket. That 2xu is more in line with what I'm looking for. Ideally, I could find a slightly lighter version of something like this Arcteryx: http://www.arcteryx.com/Product.aspx?EN/Mens/Jackets/Squamish-Hoody ... maybe with a slightly narrower cut. For that matter, does anyone own the above Acteryx? How is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Incognito Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 worth it? 699? i think 699 is just what it retails at, so if you go to a fuji bike dealer then hopefully they wouldn't actually charge 699. i got my track classic which retails at 549 for about 450 after tax and everything. so yeah, i'd say the feather is worth what you'd pay. they look nice too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soup Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Anyone who rides a cinelli mash is a fucking faggot. This theory has been tested and proven time and time again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deine Mudder Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Yea I heard they're overpriced, and that a lot of 'hipsters' ride them. Not really the bike's fault though. Also not really a lot of 'modern' (and at the same time good) looking bikes out there.. I think the Cinelli Mashs look pretty dope when set up right!

chickenwings Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Just got this bike like a month ago. Still don't know wether to make it into a fixed gear or keep it as is. any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
count chocula Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 first decide what type of riding you're looking to do. then, don't make it a fixed gear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fat ralphy Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 imo you need to ride a road bike/cross bike/mtn. bike whatever before you decide to ride fixed better off staying with your current set up and making some upgrades if it makes sense, cant tell what components that bike is set up with. get some experience riding first.

Mr. Incognito Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 if you wanna ride fixed, make it fixed. i personally find it way more fun and enjoyable and like the ride better. i get on a free wheel bike now and it feels retarded to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxcarrapist Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 For the price of converting that into a fixed gear you could buy a decent entry level complete. Keep it as is, ride it for a while and upgrade what you dont like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soup Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 The thing i remember about riding fixed is how fucking hulked out my legs got after a few months. The thing i remember about riding cross is it made me never want to ride on asphalt again, and how gay riding a fixed gear is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fist 666 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 i'm telling you guys, convert to 10 speeds, in a few years time you'll be able to talk shit about the latest stupid trend in cycling and talk about how you've been doing it for years... freewheel feels retarded?? fucking stupid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
