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)

P.S. I want to throw my Deep V/Pink Phil wheelset on the Bob just for kicks, maybe it can be My Little Pony 2.

why someone would buy a bathtub that costs more than a car only to give it away is still a mystery to me, but i'm not complaining.

it would look sick. particularly with grips/wrap that are the right shade of yellow to contrast with that sick blue on the frame. THAT would be 100% pony.

You might also look at the chromoly salsa S.U.L. Its pretty clean looking, and gives a threaded stem look for a threadless stem (or as close as may be expected). Maybe its just because i'm an engineer and a nerd, but the Newton stem by deda is also pretty nice.

edit: But you were asking about the fork/headset and not the stem, so forget everything I just said.
