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)

On the eight day my valentine gave to me a LOOK KG 496 with Corima wheels and I immediately died from shock, unable to appreciate any of it.

Wow dude! I can say those look a lot better than the white deep-v's. For sure. Beautiful!

Here is a little better picture, and with the original fork. Italian and Japanese unite!



Edit: oh and French .

Edit x2: On the fourth day of Valentines, my valentine gave to me: jonb's white pista concept, a cinelli pista drilled to accept french threading, campy laced to araya tubulars, and a stock '07 Bianchi.

Yea man.

I'm striving towards that level. So beautiful. I want the OR 10 rims SO much... they are amazing.

There is this Campagnolo (I think) stem on ebay that is going for like $220 that is branded with "Bianchi" on the side. So much money, but want it so bad.
