yoo wtf. I bought my bike during the early stages of covid so I knew prices were much higher but i didnt knew they used to be so low. Really glad you got such a nice bike homie.

@veganterminator9054 Would like to give an American bike maker (someone who's not embarrassed to be 'labeled' an American, no matter their ethnicity) my hard earned money. Anyone gotta list of craftsmen (or women) who build affordable frames?
I've been riding my Pre-Cursa quite a solid year with Sram Omnium. Honestly it's really fun ride and doesn't feel like a cheap mid range fixed bike. Worth my money!
I've been running the alpina track crankset on my black label for a little over a year and I love it, just as stiff as my omniums. Dolan makes good stuff.
Dolan Doesn't exist. You're obviously wrong and very depressed. You should go see a doctor about your world communication problems. Once you're outside my country, I'm not required to think about you at all. The Clear message to you is, your comments failed. Inbetween you and me there's over 1000 John Regans. So, do I listen to what they have to say before you?
@@klarkolofsson maybe you had a 130 BCD version? Not being able to fit the chainring it was designed for would not give these parts a good reputation...
I built up a precursa about 6 months ago to just use up some parts that were sat there after stripping and old bike that was irreparably damaged. It’s now my daily commuter and puts a smile on my face every time I head to work. Honestly such a great bike that always gets comments from local riders. It’s light, quick and definitely a track bike. I put some track drop bars on there and it just makes me want to go fast. In comparison to the cinelli vigorelli which I rode for a couple of years it’s a clear standard for aluminium fixed gear bikes and definitely and good entry level bike for anyone looking to get into the fixed gear riding.
You should come and visit Copenhagen, you will love it! And go for the pre cursa, it took me true 1000's of km, riding the streets of Copenhagen! So yes I know, Zach!
You think 22 is large, I've got a 44/24 set-up on my State Bicycle Co. Single Speed. The original was 16, but the guy I purchased from had swapped it to make hill riding that bit easier. I've only had it out a couple of times yet, but it worked really well. I got the original 16 T as well, and the fixed cog is also 16 T. Pretty nervous about trying fixed gear, but it's something I've got to try. I've also got a Vitus Vee, which is a 29er with 2.1'' tyres. It runs a 38/18, and it always puts a smile on my face.
aint no way that chain is going to fit the 22t cog on this video, its just for show bro! and to answer your question, the chainring on this is either 48/49t which makes a big difference compare to having a 44/46t chainring
i just kept on returning on dolan pre cursa, i already owned 5 framesets. i recently sold mine 2 months ago., i must say from being a courier, racing crits and alleycats. just put a good wheels and good crankset it will last you a lifetime. best bang for the buck frame!
Looking at the wheel position in the dropouts he will never get the 22t fitting wirh this chain length! Or am i missing something? With the small cog it shoul be at the end of the dropouts so he has „room“ in the chain for more teeth? 🤔
Not sure, but might not even fit at all. That's a 5t difference in cog size. I have 2t different sized cogs for swapping ratios, and difference in position in the dropouts is already enormous.
I've owned and ridden my share of aluminum fixed gear bikes, but I've always gravitated back to a steel frame. A Steel bikes ride is always smooth and responsive, not harsh and twitchy like aluminum. Leader had a great first steel frame back in the day...the 722TS. Leader sold a ton of them when they first came out and followed up with the 722 Heritage. If you can find one to build up, you won't be disappointed.
I am lucky to own both a Dolan PreCursa and a Cinelli Parallax and the toe overlap is so much worse on the Parallax.. In fact the geometry overall of the PreCursa is so much a better fit for my body. At least in UK you can choose to have a pre-drilled or not pre-drilled fork.
I would add that fit/geometry wise, the steep head-angle can make it almost too twitchy so better plan on getting a long stem if you don't like that. Out of the saddle at high speed on a wooden velodrome it can almost feel a bit unstable with a 11cm stem (beginner tracky here). Great for city riding though, especially it you are tall like me 👍
This past few days I've been thinking of my old Dolan Pre Cursa which I regret selling years ago, now there's this video making me regret even more LOL! 😅 that bike is stiff AF but somehow comfortable ✌🏼
Is Aventon done making track bikes, they've taken down the link on their homepage and seem to only mention ebikes.... BUT via google you can still access the page and buy a bike 🤔
*Looked at a lot of options for getting my **Latest.Bike** . Great find in SAVA. Super light, nice components, really good value as it comes with many options only found in much higher priced bikes.*
I prefer steel, but I have been wanting to get a Dolan Pre Cursa frameset, in gun metal grey metallic. I live near the Detroit Lexus Velodrome. Great one this week, Zach Gallardo!
I like riding aluminium bikes and was thinking if pre curse frame would be a good for a street bike if built for that purpose? asking if anyone has or is riding Dolan pre curse on the streets if they would recommend it.
Hey Zach, at some point you made a tier list of Bikeframes or something like that. And you said, the Dolan PreCursa should be really good. And oh boy, the switch from a 200€ Singlespeed to this machine was insane. I still can't use its full potential because it is so stiff and sometimes really nervous feeling. It really takes time to master this one, atleast in my opinion. It's definetly a great frame. Thanks for you recommedation some time ago. And ofc really nice to see a video on this frame after you could ride it.
Oh yeah Ive got 22t on the other side but my chain doesnt have enough links to fit the easier ratio which means I either have to carry a longer spare chain or a chainwhip tool > duh!
First off, I want to say, I love the videos! I'm new to fixed gear riding, and they have definitely helped me make better decisions bike wise. Second, I was wondering if you could do a review or video on recommending a good wheel set for someone new to riding and someone of a bigger size. I'm a big guy(close to 300lbs) and a need some recommendations for some wheels that can hold up, but not necessarily break the bank. If there is already such video, can you tag me in it? Thank you in advance!
I have this! Bought it last summer, great frame for the price (was discounted to only 150£). Incredibly stiff and lightweight at the same time. Mine came with a brake hole at the back though
What do people think of old roadbike conversion. For example something like an 80s peugeot super cometition into a fixie instead of a track or directly fixie frame.
Very good video zach, thank for so much, I have a question, I understand that the dolan is an excellent bicycle and very good for velodrome, but what would you say if its use was for the street, talking about racing and mobility or training on surfaces not as neat as a velodrome, which you could recommend for these cases.
I’ve owned serval aluminum fixed gear bikes, but I prefer the way steel feels preferably lugged. I kinda dont like bikes that are too light and flexible.
Been considering getting my hands on a state bicycle co. Frame, pure cycles frame, Velocé frame, and of course a Dolan frame for myself and girlfriend so we can ride together. If anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it
No State or Pure, or any other trendy single speed bike. As said in the video, the best bang for buck steel is the Mercier Kilo TT Pro, or for more money the Wabi Classic is incredible. As for Aluminum, this Dolan seems pretty legit
I'd go for steel frames if I were you, the ride quality is just so much better compared to aluminum. Aluminum transfers all the road buzz into your hands and feet. Which isn't a problem if you you just do a quick ride around the block or go for a grocery run, but will eventually start to hurt on longer rides. Steel softens the buzz just enough that it doesn't become problematic during longer rides. My aluminum Bianchi Pista is just sitting in the shed collecting dust, because my 40 year old Gazelle Champion Mondial steel track bike is just soooooo much nicer. Also, invest in high-end drivetrain components, my (steel) bike is caked in crud and still pedals smoothly.
At this point you are pretty much the voice of fixied gear information. Ever considered doin a joint venture with a company to make your own brand name fixie/parts? 🤔
@Bebo that'd be hot! But I would like it to have separated faceplate and a bit of a cutout/space behind the handlebar, so you can install a single break lever right in the middle.
It's an ok track frame but there are just as good if not better choices for less money, especially in the second hand market. early Fuji Pro's, later Felt TK2's and Giant omniums just to name a few. Cinellis are nice but the geometry is not really track and more road based.
You forgetting about carbon drive priority bike they have a fixed gear and flop wheel hub for free riding that's made out of aluminum and you can't beat the price at $599!
Cool bike but does it have clearance for 700x28c tires, the small increase in inflation is not that bad... Road bikes got it the worse, most are like $500, my Scott addict 30 is double the price in 2 years 😆
Would like to hear your thoughts/opinions on some Australian branded Fixed gears. JRI (JustRideIt) have recently released their 2022 Player frame, Aluminium chassis, carbon fork. They also have a Grit frame which is a Steel gravel fixed bike. There’s also another Australian brand simply called SingleSpeedBikes. They just sold out of the Osaka, (imo a great bike), frame wise anyway. Parts do need to be upgraded. The Osaka has been replaced with the Lisbon, a flat bar version of the Osaka and a New Gravel single speed is coming too. On sale at the moment, the Flat Bar Lisbon at $550 AUD is a good buy. 48x16 ratio, light, and imo, their frame sizing is spot on. 6’4” I got the Large, and I felt so dominant over the bike whilst it not being too small. Some bikes can feels like the size of a rolls Royce, this felt like a go kart in comparison
