Hello,
I built these bikes specifically for Duluth, so I thought I might get some more interest in this forum. I built my road bikes with mountain gearing so I could climb all the hills in town. You don't always need the granny gear, but it comes in handy in early spring when you're not in super shape and bonk with a few more hills to climb before you get home. The Central Hillside and Lincoln Park provided lots of steep streets without too much traffic. I used to ride a loop that took me from East Duluth by UMD out to Lincoln Park and back going up and down alot of the steepest hills in town. These bikes are perfect for that.
1. $850 Street bike: Zaskar Team frame with Winwood carbon fork, XT drivetrain, sub 1500 gram wheels from a S-Works hardtail. Link to classified http://www.morcmtb.org/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=896&cat=2
2. $350 Street bike: Schwinn Fastback Factory frame with Reynolds Ouzo fork, XT drivetrain. Missing the crank and cassette. Link to classified http://www.morcmtb.org/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=897&cat=2
3. $1000 5" trail bike: Iron Horse MKIII with DW-Link. Nice Pike 454 fork, new wheels, BB replaced last summer. Awesome bike for Piedmont, Hartley, Lester, etc. Stiff frame, stiff fork, point and shoot bike. Link to classified http://www.morcmtb.org/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=1019&cat=2
I lived in Duluth for 7 years but moved to St. Cloud which is flat as a pancake. I think I did a pretty good job speccing these bikes for use in Duluth and would like to see a local there enjoy them. Thanks, Andrew.
