Singlespeed & Fixed Gear - It's 2013: Time for a new Post Your SS or FG megathread!

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.

And I still ride fixed, just in Florida instead of Indiana, and in a town so small that I think I'm the only FG rider in town.

Kinda wish i'd gotten a white frame because i like the gold anodized but it sorta clashes with my orange paint. If it were tangerine (tt pro) i might be onto something. And yes, i did cut down that steerer since.
