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)

It is a great pic. I think I'd rather fall off on asphalt, though.

The tubes are indeed pretty, it's the joining that strikes me as poor workmanship. And what is that chain stay brace made from? It looks like folded sheet scrap.

We need expert comments from @hairnet

I looked up more photos on Pedal Consumption and it looks messy. Trips me out that they would do such minimal brazing since we usually see nice big fillets that are also ground down for smooth seamless transitions.
