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)

Thanks very much! I have a new plain silver chain that's gonna go on soon... I'm kinda waiting to wear this one out a bit more before I swap it out so I didn't waste it.

Yeah, I'm not crazy about it. But it will work for now, this is my first Roadbike/FG that actually fits me (I'm 6'5") and I'm in love. So for now it doesn't bother me much, but I'll fix it here when I'm ready to spend some more money.

Thanks

I've put well over 1k miles on mine and haven't had a problem with it. I'm no expert on fit or anything but I think they may run a few cm small. Really light though.

First shot of the EAI Bareknuckle, finally put together and ready to ride although I want to paint the front wheel white and swap out my old saddle for a white one and swap the nitto post to a silver version

Everything was pieced together from CL with the exception of the Nitto Stem, total build cost $900 (and climbing)

My new IRO Mark V Pro. Pedal straps are from the old bike, but other than that it came out how I wanted it.

Built up my new bike yesterday! I went the route of the Dawes SST AL:




Tossed on some Profile Design Air Wing bars and an Avenir 300 Series road saddle from a previous bike. Bought MKS Sylvan pedals, All-City cages and double straps, and some black B43s to finish it off. It's been a super fun bike so far.
