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)

Check out Don Walker he's got some oversized techy looking frames: https://www.donwalkercycles.com/Webpa...ges/Track.html

All fillet-brazed steel...

Edit: This one has very similar geometry to mine(mine's smaller though): https://www.donwalkercycles.com/Webpa...k/Lugless.html

i was looking through a look catalog yesterday and it had the carbon fiber track frame in it, the 496 or something like that. anyways, the msrp for the frame and fork was 10,000 bucks!! i guess there's no chance of ever seeing one of those on the street, at least not here in atlanta.

Techy, yes. Hot? Hmmmmm.....sort of looks like it never got past the awkward stage of bike puberty.

maybe if we all pool our money, sell all of our current bikes (and for some of us, our cars), and rob a few banks, we could buy one and share it. of course critical mass rides would get smaller than they already are.
And for the price of one of those frames we could build one of those figure 8 tracks that people were talking about a while ago.

for real though. i think i'd rather have the figure 8 track now that i think about it. how are you by the way since your mishap? i never heard what actually happened. first jon with his fender episode, then you right after that. jeez.

This one apparently gets ridden on the streets. I love those bars! Cervelo P2T

And this Cinelli is downright amazing.

I was coming out of 220 E. 42nd Street the other day when I spotted a tiny little bike locked up under the construction awning of the Helmsley. It had TWO carbon wheels. I was admiring it when the messenger, a wiry little thugged out dude, came up behind me. "That's cool, right?" he asked. "It's ****ing pretty as hell," I responded. "How do you have the balls to ride it?" He seemed not to hear me. "Those things, they don't make 'em anymore. Worth $500 each." I repeated my question. He said, "Smoke?" And offered me a toke on his joint.
