  1. I don't think so, but it's a cost thing. You can get a good aluminum frame + carbon fork for ~2-300, a carbon frame will be at least double that. Could also get a decent quality crmo grame for <200. You don't gain a whole lot of weight, and you get the comfort and dependability of steel.

  2. Again, just depends on budget.

  3. Weight isn't as huge a factor on flat ground, so more people prefer steel with track than they do with road bikes. For the regular reasons: comfort, reliability.

    4)Changing out the rear cog is the quickest way, takes me maybe 15 minutes. You would need a chainwhip/lockring wrench. The one I use: (http://www.amazon.com/Sunlite-Sprocket-Remover-Pedal-Wrench/dp/B005D9J45K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1415907750&sr=8-1&keywords=sunlite+chain+whip)

So, I am looking to upgrade my bike. However, it is a SS conversion.

I have been riding on it for awhile and looking to officially switch it over to a fixed gear. I have thought of buying a complete, but I dont really have space to keep two bikes because I will be living on campus. So I thought I would upgrade with decent parts and then upgrade the frame later down the line.

This is my current frame and I haven't done much with it since I got it about a year and a half ago. LINK

This is what I have been thinking of buying:

Wheelset: [H+ Son Archetype]
(http://www.velomine.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=87_172_301&products_id=2578)

Pedals: Fyxation Gates

Crankset: Andel Track

Bottom Bracket: Andel BB

Chain: Izumi ECO

Cog: EAI Deluxe Track 17t

Lockring: Dura Ace Lockring

Saddle: Charge Spoon (might a well upgrade this too)

Bar Tape: Origin8 Bar Tape

Lockring Wrench

Total: $492.75 not including the cost of getting LBS to install crank/chain/bb.

It looks like a lot to throw at a conversion, but I will eventually swap to a proper frame. Would it be smart to invest this much or would I be better off buying a complete at this price even though the quality of parts might not be like what I listed?

You'll need a lockring tool and a chain whip. (You need the whip to hold the cassette in place and the lockring tool to take off the cassette itself. Park Tools is the brand I have, and probably the most reputable. (I'd link it, but apparently Amazon doesn't want to cooperate...)

My brother picked up one of these for his bike quite a while ago, and I've used it on my bike since I've gotten it with few problems. The only thing I'd recommend is a separate pedal wrench because those things can get tight, but if your cranks are still on your bike when you change/remove pedals, it's not an issue.

TL;DR, the link is what I use, and it's pretty great.

u/Atheose · 1 pointr/bicycletouring

So if I get this tool, I'll also need something like this chain whip and this cassette remover?

Thanks for the info!
