Well, about 40 years ago I had SS bikes. I decided this winter to use a Langster as a base and creat a SS to run around town. Now, I am actually taking it out for rides and loving it. Being more of a MTBer, I set it up with MTB bars and the widest tires I thought would fit for sure (only 28s and I now know I could go a bit wider).

I landed in this area of the forum since I had been around with geared bikes. I am trying to figure out if there is a bit of Italian love and not so much for the Japanese stuff. Also, it seems pretty weighted toward drop bars around here. All good with me, I am just curious if the SS/Fixie world has a bunch of unwritten rules I am braking, which I am ok with, given it is my bike
