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)

Something tells me that if you didn't like my Bilenky, you'll HATE my Mercian Vincitore. Lots more info and pics of it on my blog...

Nope, I've been working in graphic design/art production for over 10 years now... Also if you read my blog about it, you'll notice that I originally bought the frame built up with different components for $300...
