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)

If it gets ridden and is loved by its owner, it is a good bike. A little smaller saddle and bars that didn't come back as much, and it would be fine by me.

Someone should do a version that accepts motorcycle tires...and then sell the tires to sport bike owners so they can show everyone their worn chicken strips.
