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)

Cute but useless for the kind of riding we all do. Fine for cruising around an ivy league campus I guess...

That girl's bike looks hot. That fork is ill!

Umm... If you don't like it don't buy the pattern and don't make one?

It's just marketing and speaking as someone who has been to more than a few fabric stores the Amy Butler stuff is pretty cool as fabrics/patterns go. You could do a lot worse.
