Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

No, that's a Tenos, and I have one just like it that I've put over 40,000 miles of hard training and racing over a 25 year period. I don't recall the exact model that had the problem, however, its problem was that the metal was extremely thin where the bolt attached, and it would break at that point.

"The Godzilla frame is made from Ishiwata tubing, has nicer dropouts, nicer paint, head tube reinforcing rings, and nicer finishing. All around it is a better frame."

That is a hell of a reach you've got there.

That is a hell of a bike, the Godzilla.

Yeah. I did some research before i did though. As long as it's anodized and not painted it should be ok, or am I wrong? It seems fine to me. Stopping power seems pretty strong.
