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)

****** bikes (and the questions asked) drive me nuts. I try to avoid commenting, but when I can't I get my ass reamed for talking **** about other peoples questions/bikes/etc. Ughhh!!

BTW, Aero seat tubes with non aero posts drive me bat****. Not to mention that I think those Miche seatposts are terrible for the money (biggest waste of money for a post on the planet). So when I see a "gold" miche installed on a frame with an aero seat tube my incredible hulk urges unleash!

Agreed. Wacky paint job but that's it.

Not like it's a conversion with a Spinergy or anything.

At first I thought: "A Cinelli SS Mt. Bike - SWEET!"
And then: "Man, that's geared pretty tall for dirt."
Then: "Aw F**k, that's a road wheel on the back."
Followed by: "That's a track frame"
And Finally: "What a Jackass!"
