Interesting Fixed Gear
And by fixed gear, I mean, not a fixed gear at all.

$400? Really? Looks more like $25 to me.

I have a set of 700c wheels with a coaster brake on my utility bike. I love this bike. Here it is without the front and rear Wald baskets:
The Oso bike is nice, but it's such an easy home-build that I don't understand why anybody would spend over $400 for it, like the Swobo Folsom. I love the concept of coaster brake on road wheels; I can't believe it wasn't done a long time ago.

On the Oso bike, I think one of the comments talks about it being fast, and that's not a good combination with coaster brakes- probably one reason it's not done more often.
