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)

THat front wheel is awfully far from the downtube. I thought the dawes would have had a little tighter wheelbase than that

This first one only looks good small... so... that's all you get.

Clips... kinda got a love/hate thing going with them so far.... they were cheap.

The DT, I like it. 19t EAI with a milwaukee LR..... other side is a formula 16T and DA LR.... Not a huge fan of the cog, though I like the ratio... 19T and 48T because I'm still getting back into shape and Ohio does have hills and WIND.

Where in Ohio are you? I'm assuming mid to southern Ohio? (Because of the hills statement.)

Also, is that a Charge saddle? If so, where'd you get it?

I just lowered it so I could do wheelies. It's much easier to ride fast when it's higher.


That frame is WAY too big. I'm planning on buying a new on eventually. Just making the most of it fr now.
