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)

I got them both complete for the price of a brand new decent quality track bike you can get today. that'll give you an idea of how much.
*but I'm about to sell something aluminum *hint* now that I found these which are bigger.

Dom, I'll see your two vintage frames and raise...

















still a lot of work to do. tracking down period-correct pedals, new cog, tubies and a good front brake.

it's pretty obvious it's unridable at this point. no pedals, no lockring on the cog... it needs new tubies and a 9t cog before I'll ride it.
