The Dream
Overhauled my faithful steed to fulfill a fantasy I had of a burly fixie with a front disk brake. Modifications include:
* Tires are now 32c cyclocross tires, and the front is studded
* Rebuilt the front wheel with a new surly disk hub
* Avid BB7 disk brake with new cabling and lever
* New cyclocross fork with disk mounts, etc.
It's a beast now. Rides beautifully, has awesome stopping power for those big loads, and won't be stopped by snow or ice. Love it. Super fun to do too - my first full wheel build among other things. Yee.
