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've actually moved on to a two-spoke carbon wheel that looks like an airplane prop. Fear my prop wash, biatch.

I'm hoping to upgrade to a spokeless magnetically levitated Specialized Venom "wheel". The only drawback I can see is with people labelling me a poser in 4 months time.

Posting your shiz is frowned upon..but if you pay $25 for the upgraded membership you can post stuff for sale or your auctions in the for sale forum..
yes - as per BostonFixed, this is not a place to sell your wares according to current forum policy. content edited - PM me with questions on this.

thanks for understanding
