    The use of ambient noise and no dialogue really brings these edits to a depth of POV most cant achieve. The music and going in and out of the irl noise at the beginning of the video really reminds me of when i space out. Very organic if thats a term i can use.

    Also, I highly recommend, using Schwalbe plus inner tubes ( meaning it is a super tough extra thick tube with a better valve for air retention )! Schwalbe is a German bike parts manufacturer, their stuff is reliable, and high quality👍👍👍

    How does it feel now compared to before? The bike is looking very nice with the new parts, especially having the wider tires and matching wheels. The hubs look ready for some more velodrome action, and they complement the silvery theme.😊I hope you get a lot of miles out of it end and enjoy every second. Very entertaining to watch. Interesting. got to see the inside of an NYC Post Office for the first time. No hands track stand skill is definitely improved. It was a windy day, and you still managed to do it. Congratulations! Thank you for the ride and the shop tours!
    P.S.: That butterfly knife action there was cool!

      It feels solid! I like some weight on a bike. My frame before was 52cm, and it felt too tall for me. The size of the arms of the crankset makes a huge difference. I had a 170 and now 165-the cog at 17T instead of 18T. The saddle was killing me. It would often make a noise after riding for too long. My seat post was always getting loose. I always carried a tool on me over it. The upgrades make me feel more comfortable, especially the size of the tires! Wow, it feels like I can go through anything. Thank you so much! I appreciate you so much! ⚙️✨

      @@FixedGearCycling very nice! A bit of weight to the bike makes it feel more planted indeed and the saddle is one of the most important and often ignored bike part. I used 165 cranks when I was racing, they are nice for putting more power on the pedals. Glad to hear that you sorted everything out!

    It’s just fascinating watching from Texas .
