you might want to consider a freewheel and both brakes! you'll still have a simple machine. you'll still have traffic friendly geometry. you can go as fast as your heart desires with no worries. you won't be carried through the dead spots, so will develop a more disciplined spin (if you so choose). you can coast (which is nice for taking pictures, smoking cigs, sipping flasks, and a host of other things). this will make you anti-establishment which might be as badass as frequent rear tire replacements. make sure you get kool stop salmon pads. and eat plenty of greens. i think pale yellow is nice with sidewall mesh red-brown. man, now i'm hungry.

Oh well, I guess you have the right to be a ******. You've NEVER made a decision you've later realized was wrong, right?

I wouldn't listen to these "enthusiasts". They are trying to be an image and sometimes its not always pratical
or fun. You can really get anything. I currently ride a waterford 1900 track bike with a carbon fork and wheels. It looks pretty fuking cool.
