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)

Well yeah, throw on the proper size fork and wheel, take off the tt bars, get rid of all that geared bs, and move the seat back, I'd ride it too.

actually, I'd ride it as is-with the front wheel tracking 3" to the right of the rear wheel especially. In fact, that's the main feature drawing me to it...

Yeah - I think it's shopped. Check out the "Show of your bike" thread on the Mountain Bike subforum - where I got that bad boy from. The last page is full of jackass shops.

I don't know why you guys are hating on her and her bike. I personally love the scraper bike look.

I was thinking the same thing the cameraman said. And I'm not even sure exactly what that was.

I wanna see her use the brake.
