Yes, Aurelien Bonneteaui's record-setting bike was a single speed.

Nouvelle tentative de record de l’heure par Aurélien Bonneteau ...


A few weeks back, a strand of cable snapped in the rear D.R. control cable and froze the D.R. in the middle of the gear cluster.

It worked, but it was more work than Im used to.
Fixies are for kids... and for people who are not-me.
