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)

My new track bike!!!

Someone brought up the track frame at Chucks' bikes, and I recently got one so here it is It's ALOT of fun to ride!! A few people that have been riding along same routes have asked me about is it a fixed gear and so on, great way to start up a conversation with other cyclist. Right now have it setup with a 17 and 19 cogs. Campagnolo crankset and BB, Tekro brake, Campy Brake levers. Wheels were built buy businesscycles, Phill wood hubs laced to Velocity Deep V rims, 24 bladed spokes front and rear.

I was checking all of those frames out at chucks. How does it ride?

Would you recommend the frame? Have you ridden any other track frames and how does it compare?
