Few miles in
So far so good, saddle needs breaking in, but big tires nice, who would have thought. I like the gear ratios, but it on a whole is shifted down, with more climbing, and less speed. but I got a road bike for speed. This thing is joy to take into climbs.

City Crusher: gen 3
This bike has lived different ages. At first it had drop bars and track drops. Then it had risers and a basket. Now, It’s chill, not as aggressive generation 3.
- Frame: IRO Mark V (group buy, diff tubing)
- Wheels: Mavic Open Pro, Phil Wood hubs
- Drivetrain: Sugino 75, Super Bee bottom bracket (ceramic)
- Thompson stem and seat post
- Brooks saddle
- Velo Orange bars
- Vans grips
There’s a lot of miles on this frame and wheelset. This has been all over Los Angeles and parts of Southern California. Beaches, deserts, gravel, dirt, and dry lakebeds.
