The last few days I’ve had a chance to ride my C1’s after their wheel and tire changes .
For some reason they feel small to me after riding my Roll and Rockhopper . I think the 1.9 Kenda tires have a lot to do with it too . I miss my Hookworms.
one day this week I’ll be putting them back on .
I also have some new chainrings to install . I think the 38 tooth will be going on the single speed . Depending on how it peddles , I’ll either put the 40 on the two speed or ordered another 38 or something ? I’m looking for something that will spin out around 8-9mph .
the single speed , with its 44 chainring and 22 tooth cog spins out around 12-13mph . I want a hill climber , I’ll speed on the downhill side .
