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 stretched out but i enjoy it and the various hand and body positions it gives me, i'm not sure how someone could ride more than a mile or two with just one hand position but obviously lots of people do, i wouldn't criticize them for it.

I don't 1mm will matter. Look at it on a ruler. It's really small.

Are you still using the stock crankset? If so, you can get a 108mm Power Spline BB here:

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.
