Belt drive Commuter
Posted: Tue Nov 24, 2020 7:23 pm
Hi folks, new aroun here, I'll start with a quick intro. I have been biking since I remember, seriouly for around 15, but a bigger gap during the last five. I did AllMountain (Enduro before it was cool), Downhill, a bit of road riding and some street.
I now live in a country that is very bike friendly, but remarkably flat. Used a brompton when I needed to commute with the train, but I now can cycle 20-23km each way, which is a pleasant way to start the day.
I got myself a used Priority Continuum Onyx, and already changed a bunch of parts (mostly with used stuff, or cheap parts that I got used, to try and understand what are my real needs for a long-ish distance commute), to the point that there is not much left. I will upload a decent picture of the thing tomorrow.
It no longer resembles what you can find in Prioritys website, since it is now drop bar and single speed (the most expensive upgrade until now have been a pair of used Ultegra hydraulic brifters and some cheap hydro-calipers, needed due to going drop bar).
Based on RidesOfJapan spreadsheet, measured a few things.
