Thank you, Eric. It's possible the back pain is caused by my position on the bike. Maybe the reach is longer than I'm used to. I've ridden the bike more since then, and I've gotten used to the tires...

OK, that situation is different enough from mine that is not a comparison. Thank you, though! I guess I could try another wheel set in my track bike for comparison. I am not about to change the tires...

Not a bad idea. I've been keeping it race ready, which I guess is silly. Even the brake lever is attached with a wing nut for quick removal. I have a "street fixie" but maybe I should see about...

:lol: I forgot you lived here.

Hey, at least I have a front brake, cuz I'm not stoopid.

Fixed gear is fading out of style, but I rode for a block or two with a courier on a fixie today....

I rode 15 miles in the city today. It was treacherous on my back. (I wore a backpack.) A track bike is not made for comfort, and at least a few people have characterized Continental Sprinter tires as...

I'm riding my track racing bike after not using it for a few years. I've lost my nerve. I'm afraid my 22mm tires (Continental Sprinter) will slip, even though I know they won't. I'm just nervous,...
