I would DEFINITELY go for the Lager. First of all, its like 5 pounds lighter. The rear hub on the Lager also has sealed bearings, which if you're riding anywhere but the track is extremely important; on the road you'd probably last 3-6 months before…

- I would DEFINITELY go for the Lager. First of all, its like 5 pounds lighter. The rear hub on the Lager also has sealed bearings, which if you're riding anywhere but the track is extremely important; on the road you'd probably last 3-6 months before needing a new rear wheel (this is a lesson I personally learned :P ) and getting a rear wheel built can be up to $200, if not more if you wanted, already a $450 bike becomes $650. Except they probably skip on the bottom bracket, which is not a super big deal if you're riding freewheel but if you're riding fixed you'll destroy it in a matter of months so you can add another $50 plus labor to get a new one put in.
However, if you're only riding on weekends and only in nice weather AND if you ride freewheel the Draft Lite right out of the shop could last you forever.
I almst bought a beautiful white Lager last year but went with my Flite 100 instead.

has held up well
Thanks.
whats dustin's gear ratio?
if you wanna take the decals off, why not buy a used frame and have it powder coated??
start by returning it and buying the grape soda purple frame! swap stem for threaded, get nitto b123's, all city double straps and cages, nice set of white deep v's and you're done.
ya, keep your eyes out in the next month because this seasons gear should be going on sale. (as much as im not a fan of chain stores)
I am looked for a colored chain (preferably white) that will hold up well. I also saw some picture of bikes with motorcycle chains on them, has anyone tried this? if you have, how does it work out?
my legs do turn fast, but it's between 57 and 62 now :)
I'm looking for a decent colored chain (preferably white). does anyone have any links they could post for one. I saw posts with a girl who used a motorcycle chain, has anyone tried this out?

i got little legs for a man 6' fucking 31" inseam
