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)

here's mine :


'72 Raleigh Record Coastie Commuter

Looking to thin the herd if anyone is interested. Paint is clear coated non-durable artist acrylic and applied by myself. Signed and dated under BB. Making room for the next build.

This is Madeline, a 1988 Schwinn Traveler 'Twelve speed'. Velosteel hub is supposed to be the best new hub. got mine at Coasties.com Love my delta Cruisers, and the red clay on tires only matches the bike!
