Hey Tom! The New Moustache (AKA Albastache) is a delight to ride singlespeed, and even more so fixed. I’m not sure why, but ss I mostly rode the curves and only rode the more upright outter position when cruising. Nothing changed on the Quickbeam except going to fixed gear and now I ride the outer position most of the time, except in situations where I may need the front brake or I just want a change of position.
As for stem height and length, that is so very bike and rider variable that anyone’s specific numbers may be misleading for what you need, so take my numbers with a grain of salt. In my case I ride a supposedly-too-large-for-my-90cm-pbh 66cm Quickbeam, with a 5cm stem and both seat and stem very low, but essentially even. When I see pictures of bikes from the late 1800’s and early 1900’s You can see it in action in all my recent posts starting with my most recent one here: https://thegrid.ai/withabandon/playing-on-the-peak With abandon, Patrick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
