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)

samson does that all the time. i love it, personally. it's on the driveside and protects the chain from the frame paint. main reason. also looks real nice.



i'd say dura ace or gran compe hubs. for the rims, some silver open pros or velocity fusions would both look good on there.

one pink deep v up front with a green in back. Then you tape one side of the handles each green and pink. pink seat green top tube protector.

for hubs you need one pink gran compe in back and a green one up front.

spokes should be white, obviously.

Full Suntour Superbe Pro, or full Dura Ace. I know where you can get a 7600 crankset for not too terribly expensive...

i just finalized the deal on a DA 7600 crankset (arms+ring) off that retired keirin racer guy for $180. seemed like a good deal to me. i'd sure rather pay $50 more for that used DA set than the andel cranks/FSA chainring setup i was planning on doing.
