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)

i don't see what the issue is either. i was looking for a chaingaurd a couple of weeks ago because i thought it might be a cheap fun change. i also hate having to roll my pants up constantly.

That's what I'm saying, i always leave the ankle biter and have to go back for it, or can't find it. Then i roll my pants up and stick em in my socks and if i had a chainguard i wouldnt have to do any of that.

And brakes, i have 2 of them.
