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)

Black "anodizing" on the cheap

I saw this over in the Road forum. This guy uses Marks-a-lot markers and an oven to make a black finish over anodized aluminum.
