I bought my Wabi Special because I wanted a fixed gear bike with road geometry, and preferred a lugged frame for the old school look. Does anyone else even make these anymore? I like too that their rear hubs are fixed/fixed, so you can run any fixed cog/freewheel combo you want. I have fixed on both sides of mine.

Richard, the original owner of Wabi sent me a 725 decal after I asked. So now everyone knows my tubing is real. I'm not sure if the new owners have them anymore.
