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)

My Centurion/Ironman training bike. I spend 75% or more of my total riding time on this beast:



This picture is mad old though. Now it features a 1" threadless setup with a Nashbar carbon fork, Ritchey Classic cockpit components, and a Powertap/Hed Belgium rear wheel. I really need to take new pics of my bikes.

If I ever find another one, I'll do it for sure. I'd like a nice around town bike with gears.

Currently I'm trying to sell this bike, but it's not the right season. In the meantime I just gave it some new BB30 bearings and a spring de-crusting.

Why don't you list it in the Road Bike Marketplace ? Your upgraded membership entitles you to advertise in bikeforums and it's free.

I'm somewhat saddened by the fork/hs/stem updates.

Is a little bit uglier and more anachronistic now - but oh so functional.

Post pictures! I'm all about using old frames with a mish-mash of modern components for functionality purposes. The beauty comes from function and use, specifically from knowing the owner and user is treating it right.

Your Centurion is one of my absolute favorites, it's one of the many reasons I got my new Trek!

Speaking of, I haven't posted it here yet. Time to fix that. If I ever get pics of my Rove I'll post them up sometime too.



Pedalroom here!

I didn't measure, but it's for sure between 0.5 and 1.0cm. lets say 7mm, with 23c tires.

Agreed.

What are those wheels and how have you managed to keep the sidewalls black?
