Comparison of before/after (since ya'll gave me so much **** for running the 650c front):

As entertaining as a root canal.

I'm going to post this just because.

1988 trek 560, cold set for phil wood kiss off hubs laced to 36h open pros, 48x17 gearing. I have used this bike as a rock solid commuter for years and the new fixed gearing continues the tradition. I am really enjoying this bike and the 78 trek above as commuters.

Alright, this thread was reported...I did some cleanup, back to bike photos. Please.

yep

In spite of the chainring and the lack of a right hood, I like this one a lot. Those old Treks almost always look good.

Also, should we just have a dedicated Stupid Arguments thread?

I bet if we had a thread like that, nobody would argue in it.

Another forum I frequent (an outdoorsy type forum) has an official "Dumb@ss Thread" where stuff gets moved and then locked.

I've had this old swiss Condor (probably late 70's - early 80's) converted into a fixed gear a few months ago. Best bike I've ever owned hands down. The frame was brutally light for a 531.
I used it as a commuter, 53/18T. It was a tad too long and also my knees were getting pretty worn out so I sold it.

Why the two different wheels/tires?

Had a rough year, hence I've been away from bikes for months.
Had a bit of downtime, well.. plenty of it.. so I've been back putting together/upgrading existing/new projects again.

Here are just a few I've been riding lately (better pics to come later)

Woah, have never seen that Panasonic frame before! Have any details on it? I can't make out the model.

it's a custom made full titanium frame for a former national team cyclist from china by Panasonic, the name of the cyclist is still on the frame.

nice bikes [MENTION=381946]nzkiddo[/MENTION], belong in the porn thread imo

agreed.

Also, that Steamroller is amazing [MENTION=191879]oouellette[/MENTION].

This is really really nice. All the bikes you posted are, but this one, this one is beautiful. Even with the gumwall tires, which is exactly the type of bike they belong on.

Yeah i like that colnago too. http://media.giphy.com/media/thutDsG7mlKAU/giphy.gif
