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)

Here's my Surly Steamroller singlespeed/fixed gear...I mostly ride it fixed, but occasionally I flip the wheel around.

my kashimax's have lasted a while too =), i WOULD like black toshi doubles, but at the price i'm seeing for the kashimax i may have to scoop the kash's because they are only 5 bucks more.

your bike seems big. like it won't go as fast as it should. i can't picture all those nice parts performing to their potential with your set-up. don't get it.

when i pedal, my bike moves forward.... that's all the potential i need.

it's a 52cm frame, i'm 5'7. it works.

here is the "other" mode... does it look any slower?
