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)

There's a reason why white tires aren't easy to find. Pimptastic though they may be.

The only way to keep them clean is to not ride. Clean=poser.

no guarantees there. What I like to clean my gear up after rocking a 70+ mile ride?

My Rubino Pros are still white after 6 months of use. This kid's no poser either. What? You don't like to clean your bike off once and a while?

i like how there still exists this assumption that people who appreciate aesthetics don't ride their bikes. ignorance never gets old around here. it's comforting to know that that'll never change.

i think the implication was that people with clean white tires don't ride their bikes. it's still not true, but it is a little more logical.

whatever, life's too short to let people's assumptions get in the way of enjoying your ride.

i clean my bikes pretty religiously but enjoy playing in dirt too much for any of them to stay that way.
