i've got a question on this setup.

is this competition legal? i read joey's post before that you need an RD in competition.

or this will fall in the mod category?

thanks

The gear requirement in favor of SS was adopted last year by the UCI. You can now compete in UCI in SS. But that bike is TRA's and he doesn't compete. Though he has probably the skills to belong to the top riders, he prefers to make videos.

This is quite confusing to classify because that bike is a 26"- mod meaning it has a116 mm spacing , the frame is prolly available in 135mm spacing too called a 26" - stock.

But its still a stock bike simply because its a 26" bike.
