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)

Yeah what the heck was that Surly with the massive stainless trailer thing built for? There don't appear to be any racks attached to the trailer but surely it must be for hauling something.

Yes. Sorry, I couldn't see the logo very well, but just assumed Surly due to the pugslyesque tires. I get the snow bike idea, but what is the trailer thing for?

Not feeling the tube pad or ellipses. Also, it's begging for a quill stem-- the threadless conversion looks pretty awkward to me.

Nice bike though, no doubt.

yeah, to me the ellipses are fine on that cinelli, but I agree w/ the stem comment. Would look way better w/ quill. Also, get some road drops on that thing.

And take that TT pad off!

Who cares about Cinellis with TT pads when you have girls on pink bikes doing....(well not exactly sure what but I like it) to look at? Some of you need to get your priorities in order.

the one-piece bar/stem combo is probably the cleanest and most sexy setup i've seen!! Wish I could get my hands on one...i know a lot of these custom bike builders are doing this.

I hope your friend is a national champion track racer. Otherwise this is sooo overkill. Cool looking bike tho.
