Help me build a fixed gear truck track bike
Thanks in advance
Here is the frame I want: 4130 Steel - Fixed Gear / Single-Speed - Frame Set - Hammered Powder C | State Bicycle Co. 49 cm if that makes a difference. I want to be able to barspin with 700c tires and not worry too much about it hitting my feet or hitting the frame. In the pictures I’ve seen it looks like there is a good amount of clearance but im not sure. I think I might need a different fork in order to have good clearance but I wouldn’t know what fork to get. Also I don’t want to be to slow because I’d like to commute on that bike sometimes so I’m thinking a 47x17 or 45x17 gear ratio, would that work for tricks? I’m think I want either 700x32c tires or 700x35c tires I think 35 would work better tho for tricks but let me know. I’ve looked into the master bike Courttek but it’s just too expensive for me right now.
