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, I used spare parts for my FTP since I bought the frame for only $180.

saddle angle probably don't matter much when there's no BB or cranks I reckon.

I have a feeling we will be seeing a lot of FTP's set up for street riding in the near future, I'll take my conversion for street riding over that any day. It is pretty slick looking though.

Alright, alright this isn't the "what I don't like about your bike" thread. I don't think that FTP looks that terrible. I believe(d) that part of fixed gear is using what is available to you, not necessarily what is the most accurate to track. A $200 frameset is a $200 frameset, FTP or not.

That FTP is not all that offensive, at least not to me.
