    Hi Wim,

    I'm just wondering if you're the same "Wim" that used to post on Pentrace? I don't frequent it much any more, but thought that I recognized your handle. I'm Chris Burton.

    hope you're well,
    Chris

    wim I considering a fixed gear bike. I'm looking at the Wabi Classic and Ligntning. Most of my rides have a number of rollers. Richard was ecnouraging the 650 Ligntning as my kneecaps sit on top of my ankles! How do you like your Wabi? If you had the chance to retink your purchase would you stay with the Classic or go with the Lightning and if so why? I have a mid 80s Paramount I can set up I think for around $250 with a Wabi wheel but it could use a new paint job and that's back to the Wabi prices and I think the Paramount might be a bit on the large size depending on the STA. Richard said he could set me up on a 49cm but the 42cm with 650 wheels would be a better fit. I like the idea of the fender and rack eyelets and the ability to run larger tires on the Classic. I like the 3.5 lb weight reduction of the Lightning to get up the hills.
