Would you rate this equal or

Submitted by rRooster on 09/25/2008.

Would you rate this equal or better than a fuji? I've got a motobecane (which is generic fuji), and while it rides fine, I'm looking to put together something a bit nicer and keep the moto as a beater. What say ye?

better than a fuji track.

Submitted by rootsandruins on 09/29/2008.

better than a fuji track. yes. for sure. better than a fuji track pro? probably not. but the FTP has a bit more aggressive geometry. if you're going to be riding mostly in the streets, maybe get the leader. it's like 200 dollars cheaper for the frame and fork and you don't have to get it stripped and painted a plain color.

I haven't got the money for the FTP, haha. Yeah, I'd be riding it mostly through the park or the less hazardous parts of Philly.

the schwalbe tires are a bit

Submitted by rootsandruins on 09/24/2008.

the schwalbe tires are a bit bigger than other 23s that I have. but yeah. i wrote leader an email about the geometry and the rear clearance and they sent me a set of chain pensioners...it still rides well and feels really tight. for the price i still think it's a great bike.

Questions...

Submitted by ShxtHawk on 09/22/2008.

I've thought about snappin one up since it would be a low start up cost fixie project for the winter. I've never ridden one so I need the advice of someone rockin them shits. Wudduhya say?

J Mills

I've had the same issue with photo's and have no advice. I'm gonna try what the other cat who commented suggested.

I say for the price you

Submitted by rootsandruins on 09/22/2008.

I say for the price you can't beat it. I've ridden IROs, Pistas, Fujis, KHS, and I used to have a GT Pulse. I would say the geometry of this frame feels really tight and it's agile as hell and it ranks with the best of them. Great ground clearance. Comfortable seat tube angle for daily riding. I really like it. I think Leader has done a good thing with this low cost frame. I'm just over six feet tall and i have a 31 inseam so I was worried about getting the 58 because I've ridden comfortably on 54s before. It's pretty perfect. No complaints yet on over a week of riding about an hour per day.

change the file name of your photos to something no one else would have. I think photo files are not unique.
