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)

If I'm entirely honest I was unaware of that fact...but I'll take the bonus irony!
(in all seriousness...State makes the only bike I've seen that comes in Seafoam Green as a stock color, I keep catching myself drooling over it)

When I first read it I thought har har how funny but then... I said wait I don't have that bike in pedal room or linked anywhere, so there is no way he would know that (unless u super creeped on instagram or something) THATS IRONIC

I love that Seafoam. It was my second choice, got the Chartreuse.

Hate to be a bike lock Nazi, but even I admit that this is pretty comical.

You think they would steal the seat when they could just unscrew the aerojoke and take the rest of the bike?
