What I read:
"(title) there's gonna be something about a coaster hub- a review or some coastie pron or something, clickit!
(Clicked)
goodenough frame and fork
pointless upgrade crankset
pointless upgrade chain ring
pointless upgrade bb
a chain
some pedals
some rims
some tires
Brooks B17 saddle, a color
some seatpost
some collar
some stem
pointless upgrade headset
some handlebar
some leather wrap, oiled, no color
Wald #215 rack, rigged
F### you, no hubs, bi--hes!"
My first thought- "I didn't know purefixes were available as framesets?"
Are they?
Two coaster hubs?
Wtvr, it looks cool. It would look cooler if the tape and saddle matched.

I don't dislike the bike. I wish the saddle and tape matched. And I also wish the handlebars weren't so long. They look long. Are they really long?
And there's a bell. You forgot to mention the bell. I like the bell.
Also, I believe the correct wording is "the carpet matches the drapes." However, in this case, it does not. Curtains are for trailers and meth houses. 'Round here, we ride SSFG and hang drapes.

Shimano uses threaded Hollowtech 24 BB... so it's BB24 I guess, but I've never heard it called that. I see converters called BB24, but this isn't a converted BB.

I don't like the white tires, Creme tires with a honey brown saddle to match your Drapes.

Your cog is slipping.
Welcome to the forum, dickhead. Your super cool Pure Fix coaster brake bike isn't special enough to deserve its own thread, especially if you're going to be a baby when people ask questions about it.

I quit smoking in 1979, and if you think that calling me a Raleigh Rider is an insult you are mistaken and I ride this, but with out the whales tail.
It started as a 21 speed hybrid and I ride it on everything from rice paddy trails to the national road
It was a Japanese bike called Maxwell
I stripped and painted the frame, stripped off the gear changing stuff and made it a SS, respoked the wheels and rebuilt the hubs, turned a freewheel derailleur hub into a SS with a freewheel cog. The tires I brought from the States last time I was there, some Continental TourGuard Pluses 700c x42, took off the cheap OEM cantis and put on some Shimano LX Cantis with some Shimano LX levers, Giant grips and plain jane 690mm bars with a Giant seat. It is running 53x14 with a KMC chain, no name crank and freewheel and Grunge pedals. Cost me a total of $300
