Newbie Q's
Hello All.
I have been doing a lot of reading and have some questions. I was hoping there was going to be a 'sticky', but there wasn't. #1 What are the different routes to change a geared MTB into an SS? #2 I am fairly large 6'1" 210-220 and do some track riding. That said, what would be good everyday gear for a torque monster? I typically ride a 49x16 or 49x15-17 on my road SS/Fixie (Langster) and can tackle almost every climb. Maybe 32-16? Most riding will be on fire trails without super steep climbs #3 I will be getting a Fetish frame soon. I don't think I will get the Fixation for the fact that I may occasionally pull a baby cart behind me and don't think it would work out well with horizontal drops. Should I spend the extra $$ and get a D&S instead of the Discipline? #4 I may go rigid, but if I do decide on front suspension, what would be recommended based on my weight? I would like a lock-out feature. #5 Again due to my extra mass, I'd like a few wheel ideas. Thanks for your help. I can't wait to get back on a mountain bike.... --Meek
