Bikes: iro mark v 48x16 or 15 i think (fixed), surly 1x1 32x16 (free)
man, that thing looks way better than my black mark v, especially since the orange oury grips i put on there to spice things up are now all dirty and gross looking.

Sweet IRO, I got my Mark V Pro a few days ago and was also my first fixed, and has been nothing but extremely awesome since.

Great looking bikes. And yes, that is a Soloist Carbon. Sweetness abounds at that house.

Couple questions: Why is the chainring on the inside of the spider? Where did you get the frame pad?
