Bike Check: Nemesis Project Steveland Cleaner


I am very stoked to share my newest build. The frame and bars were handmade by Nemesis Project in Sacramento, California. So far I am having a lot of fun with the bike. It is super responsive, the back end picks up easily and the whole thing weighs about 27 lbs. A couple notable features on this frame is the negative bottom bracket and 14mm dropouts. The clearance is great, I am running long 185mm cranks and there is still tons of barspin clearance. The ratio is 33 x 12 (thanks to RYD for the sprocket, and L.A. Brakeless for the cog!). Seattle Powder Coat did an amazing job with the textured ‘Copper Vein’ hammer tone coat on the frame, fork and bars.

More Photos and specs after the jump. Head over to Pedal Room for my bike’s complete profile and upload your own bike while you’re at it.

    its wild… 5 years ago we were all on our track bikes rocking the 170-5’s then 2 1/2 years ago we were all swapping down to 165’s and now were getting up to 185’s. fucking roller coaster…

    Yea 185! It is awesome to have so much leverage. Plus when you have so much clearance in the front and the bb is high off the ground it makes sense to go with longer cranks. 185 might be overkill though…

    Pretty sure he’s making a reference to Bell stuff being sold at Walmart. They look decent though.

    Thats what I thought. I bought them at the QFC while shopping for groceries. They have been great tires, and cheap. Pretty cool to me since there arent any bike shops that sell any tires over a 2.0 in Seattle.
