I'd have to agree with the recommendations to inspect the bars. I learned that lesson the hard way. I rode the original bars on my road bike for four years (albeit with some racing (duathlons)). I...

I've bought a couple of things from them and they seem fine -- good communication and prompt shipping. What more can you ask for?

I think I'd have to disagree with putting grease on a rim for any reason. Clearly the action of the brake pads will smear the grease over the rest of the braking surface. And then you're only left...

Here's the strangest looking bike I've seen in a while. I can't imagine that this weird lever system is that efficient, but is certainly unique. The brand name is Alenax apparently....

My first fixie hardly compares to the works of art I've seen on this thread, but it does the job. I've been riding it for a few weeks now, and it's a lot of fun... particularly spinning my brains out...

It's a commuter bike... I'm not concerned at all about whether it's the best available or not. I was just curious about the history of the model. It's a better frame than I was expecting when I first...

Thanks, Gary. I suspected the Cromor tubing wasn't exactly high end stuff, because I've seen pictures of other Bianchis with SL tubing. It doesn't really seem to be built like a high end bike either...
