I love my Nature Boy and would buy another in a heart beat. Mine is currently set up as a freewheel but I have plans to put a fixed cog on it soon and one of my good friends has his NB set up fixed too.

Thanks. All City has a few single speed bikes, including track bikes, but most of their bikes come with gears.

Fixed is a funny thing. Spent almost $1500 on a road bike and its really nice with carbon fork and Shimano 105 group. The bike that gets ridden most is my 30 year old converted Schwinn fixie. Its very addictive. I see the bike now and want to ride it ha.

It's been awhile.
Currently stripping the paint down since it's super ****ty. I've been practicing on the fork before spraying the whole frame.
Kind of has a nice junkyard dog look at this moment. lol

Your cog is slipping.
Super nice Gazzetta! Are those wheels that I built?

I figured that. However this is not 'Nam and there are rules, Smokey! 
I love H+Son, having two sets of wheels with their rims and a third about to be built when I finish other projects. Something about them looks nice and they perform quite well and do a cracking job for vintage bikes. Not many people are still doing Hard Anodized Grey but they are and cheers to them!

I don't know if anyone is interested, but I crafted a cleanish light mounting setup. Gotta have a parallel stem though for it to work though. Two thin zip ties between the stem and its face, along with some industrial velcro works really well to keep it secure.
