Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

I'm a convert

Just converted my commuter bike to a flip flop today. This thing is great! It's 42x16, but I'm about to either change the front ring to a 44t or the rear cog to a 15t.

Edit: ****, forgot
