Hi!
Upcoming?
Hello!
I moved to Helsinki about 3 weeks ago and brought 2 of my bikes with me, one of them fixed gear. Just found this forum after standing on my balcony and seeing a group of people on fixed/ss bikes go past. Was tempted to shout “do a skid!” but realised that is a LFGSS.com thing so wasn’t sure how it would go down here
Be interested in joining in some rides, although first need to get some 28mm tyres as 23mm on the bumpy and gravelly streets and cyclepaths of Helsinki isn’t proving too easy.

Your welcome to try it out next time ;)

Orders from evancycles, crc etc takes about a week

Instead of a week, takes about 2 minutes to get them ;)Jezston - 22:37, 18.6.2014 » Hello!

Kiitos - Gatorskins are kind of not an option as my bike is black and white, and adding brown sidewalled tyres to it would be a terrible disgrace
Duranos would be spot on. Also looking at Conti Supersport Plus City. Anyone know a good shop where I can get these? And will any of them be open this weekend?
Everything being closed this weekend is really screwing me up! Moved into my apartment last weekend and don’t have most of my basic furniture including curtains and light fittings - was looking forwards to getting all that sorted tomorrow
The lbs’s has usually duranos, but don’t know about contis tyres. I’d still go for a gatorskin. It’s just a scene choise here and no one cares if you have the brown sidewalls
Some black rattlecan and problems with non matching colors are gone. Black marker pen is ok too.

Hi guys!
