Amazing what pops up on ebay - I'd almost want it on the wall more than I'd want to ride it.

I think you are due a percentage of sales. How cool.

For those of you that don't want to hyperclick , here's the ebay item: (I would attach George's fixie photo, but it is locked in the fixedgeargallery safe from right-clickers everywhere)

Yeah...saw that earlier. The website has some other art there too. I have seen a fixed here in Chi with 'beaters...to each their own. But I do that violates the "Fixed/Track Book of Rules to Make you Hip"

I would sooo ride that!

It would just take me some time to save up and buy the proper components to hang on that beauty!

Predates Super Record by 18 or 19 years. Probably want
Gran Sport gruppo (dropouts not correct for cambio corsa or Paris/Roubaix rear).
and yes, I'd ride it, on warm sunny days only tho.

just use LView Pro to screenshot the image. Done.
And FYI Schiek, you should really try using a contraction like "who's" instead of "whose"...kind of like your correction of "break" vs. "brake."

Not that it matters at all, but I'd rather View Source every once in a while than deal with a lesser UI and lesser site compatibility every day. Maybe he should just set up htaccess instead of using javascript that only does what it's supposed to do if the viewers are lazy.
