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)

Get Yr ASC on...

Posted this in another thread, but thought it was worthy of it's own.

For those of you pining for a Sturmey Archer ASC, apparently there is news on Sheldon Brown's website that SA/Sunrace is considering re-producing them.

There is a link to email Sunrace with words of encouragement. Do it now...

Hey, not a total waste, seeing this again made me get off my butt and write to them. Not that I actually got out of my chair, but you know what I mean.

^ likewise. I'm thinking this would make a fixed touring bike a practical proposition.
