Steamroller

Steamroller
Freewheel
1.6 (32x20)
Rear brake

My Steamroller. Super fun for everything. Let me tell you about my bike:
56cm Surly Steamroller
Julian 48s w. 28mm Schwalbe slicks
mismatched, spraypainted mtn cranks w/ bash guard (175mm, for maximum toe overlap...)
plastic platform pedals with Hold Fast straps
Brooks B17 on a RaceFace Diabolus with Salsa clamp.
Stolen BMX stem w/ cro-mo BMX bars
Tektro caliper, R530 or something. As maybe you can see its actually a front brake with lots of spacers on the bolt.
I bent the brake lever back just past the pivot so the travel is still in line with the grip, but the lever is all pushed down out the way. Ya know?
16t fixed cog for getting around town, flip to 20t free for play.

Love it when people build a bike that can do town and polo and do it so well.
