Singlespeed & Fixed Gear - Felt Brougham - Love mine!

Thought Id share, since I didnt see a lot on the net about this bike.

Great bike out of the box, all Ive changed are the bars so far, will need some cages for the pedals when I start to ride fixed. Rides like butter!! Very fast capable bike.

The color combo seems to be love or hate. Ive had nothing but compliments about it. As time moves forward Im sure Ill move to a less "panda" theme.

i have one and all ive done is swap the tires (white on white and black on black) and put diff pedals and foot retention. i bought it because my truck was in the shop for a week. that was a month and a half ago, ridden everyday since.

there's a thread to post pictures of your bike...

what do these go for?

Heres the bars that I put on it. Sorry for the dark picture.

I can't find this bike on the Felt site... how much do they sell for? What are the components?

for some reason the only thing i find really annoying are the mismatched brake cable housings. everything else looks okay, but that just looks sloppy for some reason.

also, swapped wheels is looking good. and I now understand bullhorn luv

heres the bike on felts site:

What a nice bike. Congrats.

I like it but have been really loving the look of diff. color wheels.

i want to eventually change the bars and stem on mine. but its stock other then the pedals and its a great ride as is. i have people of all age stop me and say what a nice looking bike it is, kids, grandparents. my first fixie and i love it. if anyone has any stem or bar suggestions throw em at me. i want to stick with risers or straight bars, would the nitto jaguar look stupid on this bike?

i really dislike the colorway. Though i guess this probably goes along with the trend of off the peg tarck bikes.
