i jam my thumbs up and back into the tubes. this way i can point my fingers straight out in front to split the wind and attain an even more aero profile, and the usual fixed gear - zen - connectedness feeling through the drivetrain is multiplied ten fold because my thumbs become one with the tubing.

^^^no mas single speeds. I've got one already. I built this up because I wanted a down tube geared bike.
Just slapped some pedals on it and rode around the neighborhood for a bit. Fun bike - it might get ridden to work tomorrow.

Darth Vader wore all black, but he's never been on anything painted all black.
