Freaks topic for sure
about the small chainring - 48/11 @ 90rpm = 49.0km/h & 53/12 @ 90rpm = 49.6km/h - i shaved off 20g on the chainring swop

single chainring, no front deraileur, took off the rd hook
Do you still have the front derailleur hanger on the bike or did you remove it. The reason I ask is because I am building a 1 X 10 P2C and wanted to remover the FD hanger completely but it looks like it is bonded and riveted onto the frame. I can drill out the rivets which is not an issue but the bonding is more troublesome.

I drilled the 3x rivets and wedged a flat knifeblade in between the frame & hanger - it popped off after some effort.

Accomodate is a word used to describe a fit that is wrong. In this case. Either you are trolling us or you are unwilling to see the honest truth about that saddle angle, even in short distance applications or when riding for fun.

Seems to have been glued, suspect it to be a 2006
