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)

Leader looks nice. Kinda wish the wheels matched though.

All-white wheels look like plastic.

tires are aligned with the floor, but i can't tell if the front wheel and rear wheel are the same distance from the wall, The lighten says that the front wheel is moved out towards the camera more then the rear. idk.

I don't think Zaffiro comes in 650c and look at the clearance of the front tire, if it's a 650c in a 700c fork, the gap would be much larger. Unless he has a 650c fork, which I doubt is the case here since the fork is stock.

It appears that he has a 25 on the back and a 23 on the front. Could that, in addition to camera angle, be the cause of the confusion?
